Several Futures is an independent film distributor with a focus on auteurist and anti-imperialist work. The label was founded in 2022 by filmmaker and programmer Graham L. Carter in the hopes of bringing films to North America that might otherwise not be released. “My loyalty is always with the oppressed.” - Heiny Srour.

One of a handful of female outsider artists to earn praise from the early exponents of art brut, Aloïse Corbaz—born in modest circumstances in Lausanne, Switzerland, in 1886; institutionalized as a schizophrenic in 1918; and kept under psychiatric observation until her death in 1964—is portrayed here by two of the premiere European actresses of their respective generations: Isabelle Huppert, who plays Corbaz as a ruminative, searching young woman, and Delphine Seyrig, astonishingly committed as the elder artist.

Produced by Paul Vecchiali, de Kermadec’s sophomore feature, newly restored by Cinémathèque Française, is an ideal introduction to an unjustly forgotten giant of post–New Wave French cinema, who in the same year of its release would serve as one of the producers on Seyrig and Chantal Akerman’s Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce.

Restored in 4K by TF1 Studio, La Cinémathèque française and Cinémathèque suisse at Hiventy and Transperfect laboratories, from the original negatives.
