Singularity

Fascinating inquiry into the boundaries between insanity, counterculture and singularity. Very human too, as the film portrays outsiders as the real creative thinkers, much closer to great artists like Mr Pop and Mr Houellebecq. This film challenges your ideas about art, expression and beauty, and hopefully it will inspire you to follow your instincts and your own craziness. It did that for me.

The insane are usually themselves. That is why they are locked away.

This film/documentary puts the focus on a group of people that would usually be described as losers, crazies or weirdos.

The concept is based on an essay of Michel Houellebecq, in which he seems to encourage this said group of people - by declaring human suffering as the source of all poetic expression.

Iggy Pop takes a very prominent spot, maybe a bit too prominent. I would have liked to hear more from Houellebecq himself.

The other protagonists - Anne Claire Bourdin, Jérôme Tessier and Robert Combas - are all struggling with their mental issues to a greater or lesser degree - while trying to express themselves artistically.

Awakening, and invigorating.

A thought-provoking, mindful, and philosophical view into the creative mind, through the blurred filters of created realities, imagined identities, and stark clarity. This is a wondrous painting, created with words, poetry, emotion, and imagery.

At the beginning of the film, the five artists are introduced to us with a caption indicating their first name and their age. All of them are introduced by their real first name, except for Michel Houellebecq's character, who is introduced as "Vincent (53)". Later into the film, it's revealed by the name plate at his front door that his family name is "Greilsamer". "Vincent Greilsamer" is a character (who is an artist) from Michel Houellebecq's 2005 novel "The Possibility of an Island". Robert Combas is introduced at the start of the film as "Robert (49)". However, in reality Robert Combas was actually not 49, but 59 years old at the release of this film.
