PODCAST | Angelo Acerbi interviews Bruce LaBruce, director of the film Saint-Narcisse.
Bruce LaBruce is a funny man, extroverted, irreverent with a passionate love for the films of the 70’s and their world of experimenting. His films touch uncomfortable issues (for others, not for him) and sex, in any form and expression. We learn, from this talk, about his ideas and approach to art in any form.
Saint-Narcisse: Canada, 1972. Dominic, 22 years old, has a fetish… for himself. Nothing turns him on more than his reflection, with much of his time spent taking Polaroid selfies. When his loving grandmother dies, he discovers a deep family secret: his lesbian mother didn’t die in childbirth and he has a twin brother, Daniel, raised in a remote monastery by a depraved priest. The power of destiny brings back together the two beautiful, identical brothers, who, after being reunited with their mother Beatrice, are soon embroiled in a strange web of sex, revenge and redemption.
