Des Jeunes Gens Mödernes

Quinzaine 2011 | Feature film | 1h37

A legendary 70’s rock critic takes hold of a group of young counter-culturalist. From Paris to Beijing, by way of New York, Montreal and Hong Kong, the nightdwellers ride a William Burroughsy wave. As the decadent pasts and urban futures interlace, music from yesterday and today pave a revolutionary road. With his skeleton silhouette coiffed with a big black chapka, the bizarre sixty-something introduces himself : 69-x-69, Yves Adrien’s testament executor, the inventor of punk, of novö, the famed music critic of times past.
Or how Yves Adrien, an amusing and ghost-like dandy, reminds us that real life is here and now. Now or Never ! His is a subtle and electric invitation into the galaxy of « The Kids of Today ». « I believe very strongly in arrogance. I abhor the notions of submission and humility. This was one of the founding concepts of the « Ultra » movement : to never submit oneself to anyone or anything ». Yves Adrien (interview with Alain Pacadis, Libération, May 16/17, 1981, For a thermidor Rock).
