Quiet movie with gnossienne no. 1 as a main soundtrack

The true story of Elle France editor Jean-Dominique Bauby, who, in 1995 at the age of 43, suffered a stroke that paralyzed his entire body, except his left eye.

"After GYMNOPEDIES, I had long wanted to animate a film specifically for a pre-selected piano piece by [Erik] Satie. MOONLIGHT SONATA is that film. It was totally designed for the 'Gnossienne V' and the movements of the animation are timed to the overall rhythms as well as the specific beats of the music." - Lawrence Jordan

My first "real movie", which I started when I was a student, in 1978/79. An exploration / transformation of a mysterious house, black and white, with music by Couperin as indicated by the title. - Nick Collins

Chopin "Nocturnes" accompany this study in black and white inspired by Huysman's decadent novel "À rebours".
