Gaspar Noé's LOVE 3D

Festival de Cannes - Sélection Officielle - Séance de Minuit

French release date: 15 July 2015

January the 1st, early morning. The telephone rings. Murphy wakes up next to his young wife and 2-year-old child. He listens to his voicemail: Electra’s mother, sick with worry, wants to know whether he has heard from her daughter. Electra’s been missing for a long time. She's afraid something really bad has happened to her. Over the course of a long rainy day, Murphy finds himself alone in his apartment, reminiscing about the greatest love affair of his life, his two years with Electra. A burning passion full of promises, games, excesses and mistakes…

Un 1er janvier au matin, le téléphone sonne. Murphy, 25 ans, se réveille entouré de sa jeune femme et de son enfant de deux ans. Il écoute son répondeur. Sur le message, la mère d'Electra lui demande, très inquiète, s'il n'a pas eu de nouvelle de sa fille disparue depuis longtemps. Elle craint qu'il lui soit arrivé un accident grave.
Au cours d'une longue journée pluvieuse, Murphy va se retrouver seul dans son appartement à se remémorer sa plus grande histoire d'amour, deux ans avec Electra. Une passion contenant toutes sortes de promesses, de jeux, d'excès et d'erreurs...

LOVE occurs beyond GOOD and EVIL. LOVE is a genetic need. LOVE is an altered state of consciousness. LOVE is a hard drug. LOVE is a mental disease. LOVE is a game of power. LOVE is to surpass one's self. LOVE is a blinding light. LOVE is sperm, fluids and tears. LOVE is an arousing sexual melodrama about a boy and a girl and ANOTHER GIRL.

LOVE is beyond GOOD and EVIL. LOVE is SPERM, FLUIDS and TEARS. LOVE is a SEXUAL MELODRAMA about a BOY, a GIRL and ANOTHER GIRL

"Wild Bunch will also unveil Gaspard Noé’s next film, Love, “a sexual melodrama about a boy and a girl and another girl”. It marks his first solo feature-length film since Enter The Void in 2009.

“We’ll have a visual and a note of intention at Cannes,” said Maraval. “It’s a love story, which celebrates sex in a joyous way. Gaspard feels that most films that touch on sex in traditional cinema are dark and dramatic, this will be really joyous… He says it’s a film that will give guys ‘a hard-on and make girls cry’.”

It is co-produced by Wild Bunch with Brazilian outfit RT Features and Oscar-winning Thomas Langmann’s Paris-based La Petite Reine.

The English-language production is due to shoot in June, probably in Paris." (source)

The film I'm finishing is going to be very unusual, because it's a love story in 3D. But all the elements in it have already been seen over a hundred times in different films. It's just the mix that will make it different. [...] It's going to be closer to the life I really know. [...] The only violence in the whole film is how people who are madly in love insult each other. [...] With my next film I hope guys will have erections and girls will get wet. [...] KG* is the coolest actor I have ever met. He is daring, joyful and intelligent. He has love scenes throughout the whole movie. He is the ultimate 3D baby maker.
