About Cadavre exquis première édition
Roxy, a glam-rock star past his prime who has just made a pact with the Devil, goes through much emotional gear shifting when a dozen different writers and directors take control of his destiny and rewrite his life story as they see fit. In his predestined life, Roxy meets a vide variety of colourful characters: women he once loved but has trouble recognizing today; a crooked dealer who keeps leading him astray; a drag queen on the rebound; a failed playwright; a woman barkeep who's interested in Roxy; and, of course, Mephistopheles in all his disguises.
Directed by Martin Bourgault, Virginie Brault, Brian Desgagné, Stéphan Doe, Diane Gagnon, Jean-François Gros d'Aillon, Michel Lauzon, Francis Lussier, Jean-Félix Maynard, Philippe Melançon, Antonin Monmart, Cadavre exquis première édition leans on a strong ensemble — Marc-François Blondin, Annie Dufresne, Pierre Verville — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2006.
