  • THE SUBSTANCE Albert Hofmann’S LSD
    THE SUBSTANCE Albert Hofmann’s LSD Un film de Martin Witz Durée: 89 min. Sortie: le 25 avril 2012 Download for pictures: www.frenetic.ch/films/847/pro/index.php RELATIONS PRESSE DISTRIBUTION Eric Bouzigon FRENETIC FILMS AG prochaine ag Bachstrasse 9 • 8038 Zürich Tél. 079 320 63 82 1 Tél. 044 488 44 00 • Fax 044 488 44 11 [email protected] www.frenetic.ch SYNOPSIS “ Three drops of this colorless, odorless, tasteless liquid would put you out of your mind for hours! – If you haven’t heard of LSD, you will! “ En 1943, le chimiste Albert Hofmann fait dans son laboratoire bâlois la découverte d’une substance jusqu’alors inconnue. La testant sur lui-même, il prend conscience de l’extrême puissance de ce principe actif permettant de modifier radicalement la perception humaine. Il ignore encore que son LSD va changer le monde. Dans les années 1950, les psychiatres recourent au LSD comme médicament et celui-ci devient un outil d’exploration de la psyché humaine. Le phénomène prend toute son ampleur lorsque cette « bombe atomique de l’esprit » se propage hors de l’hôpital au début des années 1960 : le LSD semble fait pour les gens en marge de la société d’abondance. Au début des années 1970, cette substance à l’effet traître est mise sur liste noire. À l’heure où certaines drogues psychédéliques pourraient être utilisées dans un cadre légal, s’apprête- t-on à reconsidérer aujourd’hui le LSD comme un médicament, à l’instar d’Albert Hofmann ? THE SUBSTANCE raconte l'histoire de notre relation trouble avec le LSD, depuis ses origines jusqu'à aujourd'hui.

Their twenties are the age of freedom, of fast-changing events and intense emotions. Perhaps only at this age they can live a whole life in one day. A young girl and her two accident companions walk halfway around St.-Petersburg; they flirt and tease each other, and for ninety minutes they act out a real-time romantic drama. This stroll is full of laughter and tears against a backdrop of the hustle and bustle of the streets and some mystifying secret that keeps the audience in suspense. In the end, the mystery is resolved, forever uniting the story with the city. St. Petersburg has never been seen like this before. The city is not shown as a phantom, museum, specter or ruin. This is Petersburg on-line, a beautiful, busting city, in which young Russian Europeans live and suffer freely and easily.

SYNOPSIS A young Finnish woman escapes an enigmatic love affair in Moscow by boarding a train to the arctic port of Murmansk. Forced to share the long ride and a tiny sleeping car with a Russian miner, the unexpected encounter leads the occupants of Compartment no. 6 to face the truth about their own yearning for human connection. DIRECTORS NOTE Compartment No 6 is an arctic road movie, perhaps it could be seen as a clumsy attempt to find harmony and peace of mind in a world of chaos and anxiety. The core of the story lies in the notion of acceptance. It’s a hard duty to accept that you are part of this chaotic world, and that you exist as you do. Our hero, Finnish student Laura, takes a long train ride to visit some ancient petroglyphs. She quotes a man she met: ”To know yourself, you need to know your past”.
