    Desc: En compagnie d'Antonin Artaud: Directed by Gérard Mordillat. With Sami Frey, Marc Barbé, Julie Jézéquel, Valérie Jeannet. May, 1946, in Paris young poet Jacques Prevel meets Antonin Artaud, the actor, artist and writer just released from a mental asylum. Over ten months, we follow the mad Artaud from his cruel coaching of an actress in his "theatre of cruelty" to his semi-friendship with Prevel who buys him drugs and hangs on his every word. Meanwhile, Prevel divides his time between Jany, his blond, young, drug-hazed mistress and Rolande, his dark-haired, long-suffering wife, who has a child during this time. Cruelty, neglect, poverty, egoism, madness and the pursuit of art mix on the Left Bank.
