About État d'urgence
A young Russian comes to Paris to meet up with his lover, but he seems to have already found a new friend. Alone in Paris, Anton has loads of adventures: a quest for powerful love and shared pleasure. But the guys that he meets pass him round after having used and abused him! These boys have an urgent need to live and make love, to face up to jealousy and betrayal. They must face their homosexuality and their families.
Directed by Jean-Daniel Cadinot, État d'urgence leans on a strong ensemble — Anton Elsinski, John Stranger, Arnaud Berre — 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 screen titles of 1998.
