Tout seul avec mon cheval dans la neige, Axel Bogousslavsky

Isolated in a remote house, deep in the heart of a forest, far from the constraints and conventions of the modern world, Axel Bogousslavsky, a man-child of seventy-six, an actor, poet, musician, artist, the collaborator and intimate companion of Marguerite Duras and of Claude Régy, lives a solitary and secret life. The poetic power of his imaginary world – a blend of madness and sagacity – his mysterious knowledge of the things of the mind, the dazzling intensity of his words and of his vision, invade the single room in which he lives. This small space becomes an intimate cosmic theatre in which visions and memories come to life. From one dawn to the next, an inner voice engulfs him, illuminating a fragmentary portrait of a being without limits – eternal child and ancient Chinese sage -- who has chosen, rather than lose himself in today's world, to remain alone with his horse in the snow.
