As part of the Carte Blanche granted to Gilles Coudert (a.p.r.e.s productions) and Anne Le Troter, presented by Le Générateur.
This documentary film (2014) directed by Anne-Laure Chamboissier and Philippe Franck in collaboration with Gilles Coudert is based on interviews with the late poet-performer-artist Bernard Heidsieck and other major figures in sound poetry, (Jean-Pierre Bobillot, Olivier Cadiot, Laurent Cauwet, Anne-James Chaton, Paul-Armand Gette, John Giorno, Françoise Janicot, Arnaud Labelle-Rojoux and Jean-Jacques Lebel) from his personal archives and his family.
The film is about discovering the singular work of an essential historical figure and too little known of sound poetry and more generally of contemporary art. But also to emphasize the importance of sound poetry (and more particularly the “poetry action” of which Bernard Heidsieck is the inventor) both historically and in its most recent developments. As part of the ‘Discoveries of the Saint André’, a.p.r.e.s production (co-producer of the film) presents a cycle of screenings of films in the presence of directors and guests.
