In this haunting animated short, viewers are plunged into a chilling world resembling a concentration camp, designed by the universe itself. The film, "Les Jeux des Anges," draws its inspiration from a series of paintings by Polish artist and filmmaker Walerian Borowczyk. It invites us to explore a nightmarish labyrinth where sinister elements abound, evoking the unsettling imagery of Bosch and Ernst. The abstract soundtrack adds to the eerie atmosphere, heightening the sense of unspeakable horrors hidden within this dark universe. Borowczyk himself referred to his work as "A report on the city of angels," a title that underscores the complex juxtaposition of beauty and darkness found in this masterpiece.
