"Enigmatic as they seem, these images speak to our thought: it is the first moment, primordial vision even before the birth of the landscape where the vision freed of its mental achievements is decomposed into primordial elements. This is what the film KOMMA explores as a double comma in the German comma word, this interstage of the language that connects the words, and in coma, this between-two of the depths between sleep and death. The camera follows in fixed planes the movement of the fluids and the decomposition of the light spectrum. In this constantly changing topography appear transient forms confronting us with the feeling of ephemeral and metamorphosis. Florence Netzler.

This film, made from the rhythms of the flow of colored fluids, reminds us of magmatic outpouring as well as continental drift. We witness the formation and unfolding of a world whose impulses seem unpredictable because they are made up of chain reactions - what scientists call "sensitivity to initial conditions", which is the basis of chaos theory. The film is built in three parts that follow a montage plan by color, successively: black - red - blue - yellow - white. The choice of primary colors, which conditions a large part of the work of Frederic Grandpré.
