maldorora 2

 

Based on The Songs of Maldoror by Isidore Ducasse, The Count of Lautremont, is this work of Surreal Misogyny and Blessed Imperium starring the Lunatic Luminary Lisa Hammer. If Mary Poppins possessed by Ayn Rand functioning under Extreme Psychosis, took a walk in Turn-of-the-Century Central Park and met a sweet little angelic girl, it would be a scene close to this short film from the Neurotic Bowels of Miss Swift. maldorora 4
