Marquis

A severed head in a basket. A talking penis in a cell. Welcome to the Bastille, 1789. This is not your typical history lesson. In this audacious, stop-motion animated comedy, the Marquis de Sade pens his infamous works while his anthropomorphic genitalia, Colin, argues for freedom. A riotously obscene and politically charged satire, 'Marquis' (1989) reimagines the French Revolution through a lens of surreal puppet depravity, where philosophical debate and base desire collide in a dungeon. It’s a bizarre, one-of-a-kind animated experience that is as intellectually provocative as it is grotesquely funny.
