In times flooded with moving images, this essay embarks on a winding journey into darkness, in search of a place where we can be free and where anything is possible: from the Paris catacombs through the delirious club nights of New York, to the myths of the Sumerian underworld. We are guided by the voice of Marguerite Duras – queen of darkness – telling us secrets on writing, alcohol and the death of cinema.
