Lodela
1996, English. Directed by Philippe Baylaucq.
An evocation of the origins of the world. A hymn to the beauty of the human form. A celebration of movement. A metaphor for life and death. Lodela draws its inspiration from the Bardo Thodol, with the film's title a corruption of "l'au-delà," a French term for the afterlife.
