La lucarne des rêves

Le pitch

“La Lucarne des rêves”* is a story of transmission between the generations from analog to digital technology. It is an open initiatory journey for all, where daily’s noises can become music, with the participation of Lionel Marchetti and Bernard Parmegiani… Movie length: 70 min.(* the literal english translation of “La Lucarne des rêves” is “The small window of dreams”) 
The french movie called “La lucarne des rêves” is an initiatory journey proposed to all, using recorded noises of the world which have been transformed and made up with electronic machines to transport you in another world of sounds.

This project begun with the discovery of the concrete music by Cendrine Robelin - Director and Sound Artist born at the digital technology era. Each of her musical composition is a magic journey surfing from inside of oneself and the outside world. Nevertheless, she quickly is alienated by the automatic parameters of her software of sound creation. Then, she focuses on the search of previous generations of composers, as closely as possible to the musical movement.

She is introduced to two composers of different generations, Lionel Marchetti (born in 1967) and Bernard Parmegiani ( 1927-2013 ) endowed with a singular relation with their analog machines.

Whether in the intimacy of their recording studio or outdoors, the young " digital native " composer observes them during their work in listening. The composers meet other composers, Michel Chion and Beatriz Ferreyra. Together, they live intense moments. We are near them, in perfect osmosis, in playful shared moments, without theoretical speeches, everything in sensations.
Step by step, her initiators change her own distinctive way of looking at the world..
 

And now ?

Bernard Parmegiani is one of the main characters in this film. He unfortunately died shortly after the end of the film shooting. He offered many magic moments and now we have to make sure to create a movie as good as what has been previously presented to him.
