Sometimes with human features, others with mechanical ones, the beast is a shapeless creature of the depth, that sleeps in the subsoil of Paris (France) and threatens to destroy the city. At the same time it is the portrait of a dull and dehumanized city, full of ominous signs, very far from the typical image of Paris represented in postcards. The statues that decorate its streets, manipulated and linked to other elements, gain life, participate to this symbiosis with the beast, that end manipulating the life of its citizens.
