Off With Her Head - The Salacious Pamphlets of Marie Antoinette (2021)
Film by Camelia Finley Writer/Director A demigod descends to Earth in hopes of experiencing a human life. His placement is within the body of a woman, Marie Antoinette, where he experiences man's inhumanity to man. He is beheaded, and ascends back to his original self more whole than before. This film explores the libel pamphlets distributed throughout Paris, leading to Marie Antoinette's death by guillotine. Taking each propaganda illustration and acting it out reveals the terrific lies the writers experimented with in the creation of her fall, from the ludicrous idea of bestiality and incest in the royal family to the size of her wig and embezzling millions back to Austria. Here we may prove that propaganda can kill you. Further, shot completely in an abandoned railyard, the location lends itself to a vast feeling of neurosis contained. There is within it the insinuation of reality vs insanity, immortality vs mortality, and the fantastic vs the domestic.
