In his description of planet Tlön, Borges describes the Tlönite as people who believe that every man is in fact two men, arguing that when we sleep, we are awake elsewhere.
Olivier Godin
Olivier Godin has made numerous films. In 2014, the Cinémathèque québécoise dedicated a retrospective to his work. His cinema blends tones, genres, and contradictions. He always works with modest means, in a resolutely artisanal spirit, which doesn't stop his films from featuring battles, swords, knives, and bawdy jokes. In short: adventure! His latest film, Don't Forget the Oatmeal (Oublie pas le gruau, 2026), is a children's movie for adults, featuring nasal pyramids ravaged by cocaine, kung fu, and far too many drawings of erect penises. Miraculously, he occasionally receives awards and grants.
