A famous French director Patrice Leconte (The Girl on the Bridge,
Monsieur Hire, Intimate Strangers, The Man on the Train, A Husband of
the Barber, Happy and Tanned and Mockery), filmed his first full-length
cartoon Le magasin des suisides. The motto of the animated film is: Your
life is a disaster. Die successfully. It is a black comedy about the
crisis in society, in which people have lost their taste of life, so
that even pigeons decide to kill themselves.
The only successful person in such a situation appears to be the
owner of the shop, where everyone may choose the way he wants to die –
buy a tasty poison or aromatized soap for the rope. Suddenly, in a
family of a prosperous businessman, a full of joy boy was born – the
tale comes to its end.
‘It’s not a justification of the suicide and it’s not a mockery at all. That’s the way the world is – a story about the crisis in society, where people lost the sense of life. Afterwards, joyful Alan appears, he is only 8, but he is able to make the sadness vanish, so that people become interested in their lives again. It is a modern tale, so to say, reflection of the modern society development. I like it immensely’ – shares the director.
Patrice Leconte admitted that he likes to work with animation genre
more and more. Now director is about to start his work with the
full-length film entitled Music!, which budget is 20 million dollars.
The story depicts adventures of fearless Nina, a girl who finds herself
in the ultimate universe, where mysterious powers have destroyed all the
