A rope emerges from the surface of the water. On his canoe, a being, who seems
cut from this same thread, grabs it to see where it leads him: to an island. He
lands. Since, following this Ariadne's thread, he strides over rocks and crevasses,
let's call him JeanJambe. Exploring limestone chasms, hurtling down walls in
Crystal, JeanJambe faces bats and lightning, impressed and fascinated
by so many wonders. What a spectacle! After the adventures of the diver Jim
Curious under the ocean and in the jungle, Matthias Picard offers us a new
splendid 3D adventure – this time photographing the sublime landscapes
hidden beneath our feet. JeanJambe's candor contrasts with the sumptuous decors
designed by a designer who is as much an illusionist as a
crazy filmmaker. Juggling with focal lengths, microscopes, building and
molded in plaster, he magnified in his staging a material gleaned here and there
there, during walks. Like a child who has never stopped considering pebbles
and gravel like treasures, Matthias Picard has made JeanJambe an epic
breathtaking, which will delight all generations!
