Ahead of its release in French cinemas, the first international trailer for Coma has been released. The film is a mix of live-action and animation with a star-studded cast. Gaspard wasn’t part of the live-action line-up and only voices the character of Scott. It arrives November 16th in French cinemas, and is still seeking U.S. distribution.
Locked indoors, a teenage girl passes time in a state of limbo. She follows the channel of a mysterious YouTuber called Patricia Coma. FaceTime chats with girlfriends with whom she shares a passion for serial killers are interspersed with stop-motion animations of talking Barbie dolls and a VR perspective inside a terrifying forest; the juxtaposition of these elements creates an unsettling and disorienting observation on growing up in our troubled times. Where is the line between reality and an imagined world?
