Pierre Rissient's 'Cinq et la peau' Gets DVD Release by Carlotta Films
Carlotta Films releases 'Cinq et la peau', the second feature film by Pierre Rissient, a pioneering cinephile who discovered auteurs like Jerry Schatzberg, King Hu, and Lino Brocka.

Rissient masterfully blends his passions for classic Hollywood cinema, jazz, poetry, and Manila, creating a unique and magnetically powerful work that has achieved near-mythical art object status.
