...el amor que quema rápido, pero dura para siempre...
París, en un futuro cercano. Marc y Hans son dos ladrones que deben dinero a una intransigente mujer americana que les da sólo dos semanas para pagar. Planean robar y vender un nuevo antídoto para curar un virus parecido al del SIDA, que está matando a los que "practican el amor sin amor", pero necesitan un cómplice. Reclutan a Alex, alias "lengua veloz", un chico rebelde que acaba de romper su relación con su novia de 16 años de edad.
"Mauvais Sang" (1986), a cinematic gem produced by Soprofilms and Unité Trois in Switzerland and France, is a testament to the visionary genius of director Leos Carax. This neo-noir film, set against the backdrop of a futuristic Paris, weaves a tale of love, crime, and existential angst. The narrative follows the young and enigmatic Alex, portrayed by the charismatic Denis Lavant, as he becomes entangled in a heist orchestrated by the ailing Marc, played by the legendary Michel Piccoli. The film's visual style, characterized by its striking use of color and innovative camera work, captures the essence of a world teetering on the edge of chaos. At the heart of "Mauvais Sang" is the tumultuous relationship between Alex and the captivating Anna, portrayed by the mesmerizing Juliette Binoche. Their love story, fraught with passion and despair, serves as the emotional core of the film. Carax's direction imbues their interactions with a raw intensity that resonates deeply with the audience. The film's soundtrack, featuring the hauntingly beautiful score by John Cale, further enhances the melancholic atmosphere, creating an immersive experience that lingers long after the credits roll. "Mauvais Sang" also stands out for its prescient exploration of themes such as disease and societal collapse. The film's fictional "STBO" virus, which causes people to spontaneously combust when aroused, serves as a metaphor for the destructive forces at play in both personal relationships and society at large. This allegorical element adds a layer of depth to the narrative, inviting viewers to reflect on the fragility of human connections and the precariousness of the world around them. In its bold fusion of genres and its fearless approach to storytelling, "Mauvais Sang" remains a groundbreaking work of cinema. Leos Carax's daring vision, coupled with the exceptional performances of its cast, ensures that the film continues to captivate and inspire audiences decades after its release. As a product of the collaborative efforts of Soprofilms and Unité Trois, "Mauvais Sang" stands as a shining example of the creative possibilities that emerge when artistic boundaries are pushed to their limits.
