Townscapes

Writer/director of the upcoming film, IMMORTAL, Enki Bilal collaborates with Pierre Christin to tell four tales of modern day towns caught up in fantastic circumstances. In the TOWNSCAPE collection, Bilal and Christin give their unique fantasy treatment to three small communities: a small town fallen on hard times is revitalized by the unusual vision of an insightful young woman, a fishing village and a local ghost confront a group of unscrupulous property developers, and a mysterious military experiment has a surprising effect on a remote farming town. Each story presents a timeless tale set in the trappings of the present, with a yearning towards the fables of yesterday. SUGGESTED FOR MATURE READERS.
