Description
PRIX CELESTE 2001

"Marcel Proust passed away on the 18th of November. It was 1922. One day, I could no longer resist: I went in search of him.

"I prowled about, I visited the rooms where he had lived, I caught glimpses of abandoned chateaus and haunted places, I walked in his footsteps. I wanted to see what his eyes had seen. I looked at his photographs, I uncovered relics and little treasures. I tried to find out who he had been in life, what he had really been like. I interrogated those among the dead who could still reply: his friends, his confidants, those who had crossed paths with him.

"Who was he? The dandy who set out for salons as though on a foreign expedition? Or the invisible man who flinched from the light, the character in a thriller? The brilliant writer was concealing a doppelganger, and I pursued him as though tracking down a missing relative." - Jerome Prieur

About Jerome Prieur
Jerome Prieur is a writer and filmmaker. He holds PhDs in law and literature, the latter supervised by Helene Cixous. His books and films bear witness to an obsession with traces of the past, images, archives, and the presence of the departed. He is the author of around twenty books, including Roman noir, on Gothic literature (notably, The Private Memoirs and Confession of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg); Rendez-vous dans une autre vie, in search of the ghosts of Pompeii and of the 1900 Paris Exposition; La moustache du soldat inconnu, in which he claims to relate 'his memories of the Great War'; and recently Regarder et ne pas voir, a chiaroscuro portrait of a witness to the events of the 1930s and '40s. In his latest, multi-award-winning film, Sentinels of Forgetting, the protagonists are the sculpted figures on memorials of the First World War.
