Summary
Nine bizarre stories are interwoven as a visual fantasy. A jewel is stolen from
a "living" painting; a mirror has the power to steal whatever it reflects; a young man’s
future is foreseen by an internet website; a seminary student dresses up as a priest so
that he can listen to confessions; a Catholic man discovers that he is really a Jew; brothers
fight as they search for some rings; and a treasure hunt leads to...
Review
After his haunting dream-like adaptation of Marcel Proust –
Le Temps retrouvé (1999) – Raoul Ruiz’s
Combat d’amour en songe is an even more baffling,
free-flowing work in which the conventional linear narrative format is all but totally
dispensed with. Experimental and slightly off-putting, this is possibly Ruiz’s least
accessible, most self-indulgent work to date.
