Jean Cocteau, poet before the eternal and consequently Master in mysteries, speaks in his first film of Life and Death, twin sisters linked by a pact written in the blood of the dream. The path that the poet takes - irrigated with the opiate realism of the dream - is paved with pain, often self-inflicted. What emerges before our eyes is none other than the artist's creative process leading to a work of extraordinary visual force. One finds there already the fascination of the poet for the passage from a state to another and that symbolizes of course this object so proper to Cocteau: the mirror.
