Film Notes
Thierry Zéno’s debut feature, variously described as a “mystical allegory”, a “schizophrenic nightmare” and on the other as “obscene and spiritual” and “disgusting and vile”, remains one the most notorious and difficult to see films of all time. Vase De Noces is the simple tale of a lone man living on a farm and his often intimate devotion to his animals. Love turns to hate and violence with tragic inevitability. The New York Times described the film as “Pasolini at his worst” and the film certainly recalls the Italian maestro’s 1969 cannibalistic allegory Porcile (aka Pigsty) - a similar attempt at examining the horrific sacrificial parallels between the medieval and the modern and the human/animal. Both films evoke disgust and disbelief. Zéno’s film, however, chooses to deploy rather a monochrome painterly beauty, echoing the pig/human etchings of artist Félicien Rops to profoundly affect the viewer’s senses. Vase de Noces was banned in Australia in the mid 1970s on the grounds of indecency while at the Cannes Film Festival it was selected for critic’s week. Whenever the film is shown controversy and debate rage. This is very rare opportunity to make up your own minds.
