Ten years later Pauline tearsEmilie Brisavoine realizes Mom tears. Two films that do not deserve the infamous “documentary” label and which I would define as CQCD (what is this dinguerie) more demanding category than that of WTF films (What The Fuck), in which Gender films: science fiction, gore, etc. Example of a labeled film CQCD: Riverboom.
If you are not one of the 9,480 spectators (shame on you, darling public!) Who went to see Pauline tears In 2015, I brief you. For two years, Emilie Brisavoine introduced her not hidden camera into her own family. Pauline, her half-sister, is 15 years old, she still lives with her parents, two queens of the night on the return who knew each other in a Parisian gay box where he made transformist numbers (Marilyn Monroe, Mylène Farmer, etc. .). He was 20 years old, she was 28. She had lost custody of her first two children, namely Emilie (the director) and her little brother. Following which, the mother who tears had converted to punk, just to send the guys. So she flashed on the trav ‘: “This one, I want it and I will have it”. The improbable happened, she got it. It must be said that she was still very pretty on the images shot at the time. She is not at all, fifteen years later, with thirty kilos more, her red hair and her rotten teeth. Punks do not go to the dentist, they are too cozy. We do not understand what they are going through, if not their shouting. This family is a factory to spit out on the face. It doesn’t stop. And Pauline who is not outdone seeks the way to tear these cassos of parents whom she loves and who destroy her. It will take him two years, while filming the film.
If you have managed to support the beauty and strength of Pauline tears (on sale at 2.99 euros on Appletv), you are ripe for the future, ten years later, when Emilie Brisavoine returns to her family Filming Mom tears. She wants to talk to him, to put things to the point, to empty her bag, to send him once to her face all the evil she has done to them, to her children. And to her stepfather too, she means things. Impossible. It doesn’t come out. She then shows him the sequence where he screams after Pauline, the cinema can serve as an anti-mirror, we see ourselves as we are. Barely embarrassed, he consoles it: “Usually, I don’t like my voice, I find it too effeminate, but when I cry like that, I do guy.” He too has a passive that we discover thanks to the extract of a Delarue program where he made a sensation: “My mother had me at 11 years old, my father was 15”. He did not know his parents until late. Too late. It is not an excuse, it is the revealed face of the So Funny Queens of the Night.
Masterpiece
Ten years later Pauline tearsEmilie always holds the camera, but the image is better, the sound too, and above all she is present on the screen, films herself trying to heal, from visio psy, a face -to -face dowsthe The chakras in place thanks to a manipulation of the body without touching it, pure magic, funny pathetic.
It is also a film on his little hypocondriac brother, also running from one doctor to another in search of a diagnosis which will finally reveal the presence of cancer of unhappy childhood. “Those who like children don’t do it”, I don’t know who says that in the film, but I have stayed.
It must be said in what the two films by Emilie Brisavoine are a masterpiece. The subject, the method, the aesthetics are the same crazy, fragile, overwhelming wood. It must also be said that the budget is enormous, entirely funded by the courage of the director, and she has some to pay for such a cast of hell: her family, a band of narcissics who donated their person to the cinema. At La Post-Prod, an outstanding roller chief, life.
