Created with artificial intelligence algorithms refined by human choices, this animated short film takes us on a Toulouse-Lautrec’s imaginary journey to the heart of 19th-century Paris. Drawing inspiration from the artistic biography Lautrec, mon ami by François Gauzi, a close friend of the painter, the film explores the kaleidoscopic forms of entertainment of that era and reconstructs the world of Toulouse-Lautrec’s cabarets.
