Broto et sa z’complice
Dominique Bassal
Programme notes
People have occasionally imagined that aliens were sending us benevolent beings as ambassadors, individuals who were naturally determined to shake us out of stagnation. In other fictions, aliens send cohorts of bleak brutes with orders to enslave us. Notwithstanding, we have always granted these emissaries a superior intellect. The two intergalactic secret agents portrayed in this piece are complete idiots. What are they doing on Earth
— Dominique Bassal [English translation
