Aller au ciel pour voir #[nn]

A striking 2018 release from Presque Lune, Aller au ciel pour voir by El Irra opens with a cover image that stops you cold: a pale, outstretched hand holding a bloody screw against a bold cross-shaped design in deep purple and red. The graphic simplicity is quietly unsettling, letting that single drop of blood do all the storytelling work. A compelling visual statement from the French-language independent scene.
