"Compression de À travers l'univers" is the reduction of my film À travers l'univers from 1 hour to 18 minutes into a 4-minute movie. The film is "compressed" like a work by Arman or Caesar. But unlike the work of these artists who compressed usual objects, this self-compression reduces a purely artistic object. The tour de force and the bet of Compression de À travers l'universe was to make a total compression: in this film, there is no lack of a single shot of the original film!
