Cinema – Fictions
In the
Fictions series, the collaborative effort with
filmmakers begun in the
Cinéma – Monographs series also includes publishing their written work, their literary creations in the form of short stories, novels and tales for adults. These works reveal the extent to which artists who mainly focus on images are also driven to develop their own forms of writing.

Both a prelude and a continuation to Raoul Ruiz's film, Treasure Island, made in 1984, this text presents itself as the follow up, or rather, a pursuit of Stevenson's novel. A formidable example of the way Ruiz parodies the text and plunges the story inside the story, before losing the reader in a labyrinth of strange images.
