When the shots were moved outdoor, he started loosing control over the film and came into conflict with the crew. Eventually he was taken by an ambulance with a diagnosis of heart attack.  Found after 50 years, the unfinished film is impressive: a feerie of colours that brings to mind drug experiments, sultry atmosphere due to unbridled eroticism...
