Venom and Eternity (Traité De Bave Et D' Éternité) is a 1951 French avant-garde film by Isidore Isou that grew out of of the Lettrist movement in Paris. It created a scandal at the 1951 Cannes Film Festival. Kino Lorber released the film in 2007 as part of its DVD collection of Avant-Garde 2: Experimental Cinema 1928-1954. This version is based on Rohauer’s edit, restoring some of the sections he had removed. It also prepends a five minute section of black leader where the Lettrist chorus plays, added to fulfill Isou’s instruction that the chorus be played shortly before the opening credits.
