Niki de Saint Phalle's Sleeper Hit Gets a 4K Facelift (Finally)

**OMG! 7th House is gracing us with Niki de Saint Phalle’s “A DREAM LONGER THAN THE NIGHT” (aka *Un rêve plus long que la nuit*, 1976) 😴. It’s the first (non-festival) LA screening! 🎉 A *new* 4k restoration? 🙄 Prepare for glittery phalli and feminist avant-garde chaos! 🎭**

Camélia, princess & daughter of artist, played by Laura Duke Condominas, wanders thru forests with dragons, witches & lizard-men. She wants 2 be a woman! A witch grants her wish. Then persistent lovers come.😳

Toy gun dragons & hand-painted cards? ✨ Synths & drums create surrealism. Diamond-clad women writhe in ecstasy. Leather-clad fascists appear. A mistress tempts Camélia to courtesanship. She resists! Girl just wants love! ❤️

Rage, sex, trauma & joy become a dream-logic fairy tale. Toxic masculinity turns 2 feminine creation. Cannons & sparklers everywhere!💥

Newly restored in 4K from OG 16mm negatives (1976 version). Rare theatrical screening! 🤩 Niki de Saint Phalle directs this French/German film (with subtitles) in Color, Digital (82 min). Thx Jacob Perlin & Andrew Adair. 🎟️ $12. Email [email protected] or call 323-663-2167.
