"The Misfortunes of Paul Cadéac" shows the ravages of time on a copy of the film "Quai des blondes", the only realization that Paul Cadéac shot in 1954. By isolating and slowing down the most damaged photograms of the French producer's film, I managed to create an object with abstract shapes and, insidiously, to give another life to a leading artistic work.
