PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
An enticingly impressionistic combination of personal observations and artistic renderings, Bastien Dubois' "Madagascar, carnet de voyage" brings a stunning 3D trompe-l'oeil effect to a series of sketches from the French animator's travels around the titular African island. As if flipping through the pages of a scrapbook, our perspective moves through the various visual styles in such a way that the scenes appear to take on real volume in space. The format is incredibly intuitive, reflecting the way our memories and imagination seem to unfold relative to the pictures that trigger them, and yet, the specifics are so unique to Dubois' experience that we benefit from his exotic travels in the process. (Peter Debruge: Variety)

----------------------------------------
"Bastien Dubois' style mash-up "Madagascar, Carnet de Voyage," in particular, is a vibrantly impressionistic travelogue of the French filmmaker's trip to the African island nation, rendered as a scrapbook come alive." (Robert Abele: Los Angeles Times)
