Marquis (film)
1989 Belgian film
Marquis is a 1989 French-language film, produced in Belgium and France, based on the life and writings of the Marquis de Sade. All the actors wear animal masks,[1] and their voices are dubbed. There are a few scenes involving clay animation. The film was a project by French cartoonist Roland Topor, who had previously delivered the imagery for the animated cult classic La Planète Sauvage (1973). Marquis too is considered a cult classic today.[2][3][4]
The tagline used in the US release was, "A bizarre tale of sex, lust, and the French Revolution".
