What happens

Au pays de Zom est un film québécois réalisé par Gilles Groulx, sorti en 1983. Ce film est un essai que Groulx a lui-même qualifié de « fantaisie musicale néo-surréaliste », interprété principalement par la basse Joseph Rouleau, sur une musique composée et dirigée par Jacques Hétu. Il est situé à mi-chemin entre le cinéma, le théâtre et l'opéra. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
