ORCHESTRATOR OF STORMS: THE FANTASTIQUE WORLD OF JEAN ROLLIN

ORCHESTRATOR OF STORMS: THE FANTASTIQUE WORLD OF JEAN ROLLIN tells the story of one of Eurocult cinema’s most unique voices. Deeply misunderstood and widely misrepresented during his decades-long career as a film director, Rollin’s work received absolutely no recognition until the advent of home video allowed him to attain a marginal cult status in English-speaking genre circles. ORCHESTRATOR OF STORMS digs into Rollin’s life and passions to explore his strong connections to the Fantastique, his frustrations with the French film industry, and, most importantly, his singular vision that ran counter to other western traditions in genre film.
