It’s been nearly 20 years since Larry Clark shocked audiences with his directorial debut Kids; nevertheless his trademark theme of teenage rage continues to pervade his films. Whether you regard his movies as a tragic reflection on the state of disenfranchised youth or simply exploitation, there’s no denying that former social renegade photographer turned controversial filmmaker is the best at documenting the transgressive behaviour of teenage skaters. Now in his 70s, Clark partnered with French poet Scribe to follow a group of young Parisian skateboarders, as they skate around the city, drink, do drugs, and yes, have sex. The Smell of Us opens in France on January 14th. There is still no release date for North American audiences.

The Smell Of Us
Director: Larry Clark
Writer: Mathieu Landais
Producers: Morgane Production’s Gérard Lacroix, Polyesters’ Pierre-Paul Puljiz
U.S. Distributor: Rights Available
Cast: Michael Pitt, Alex Martin, Lucas Ionesco
Larry Clark is back again, and quite quickly, since his last film was 2012’s Marfa Girl. The often controversial filmmaker turns his sights to skateboarders, which automatically puts us in mind of Gus Van Sant’s Paranoid Park. A cast led by Michael Pitt lends to the intrigue, as well as the presence of Lucas Ionesco, son of Eva Ionesco and grandson of Irina Ionesco, an infamous family in France (and Eva Ionesco directed a 2011 film called My Little Princess starring Isabelle Huppert, which documented her childhood as a nude model for her mother’s photographs).
Gist: Follows a group of self-destructive skateboarders in Paris.
Release Date: Clark’s last film, 2012’s Marfa Girl won top honors at the Rome Film Fest,...

Controversial American film director Larry Clark, who is making his first film outside the Us in French in Paris over the summer, is to receive a tribute and showings of his complete works at next week’s Deauville Festival of American Cinema.
The new film The Smell Of Us is about “self-destructive skateboarders” in the City of Light. The idea stemmed from poet Mathieu Landais whom he met during an exhibition in Paris and who ended up co-writing the screenplay.
Rocker Pete Doherety apparently plays a role in the film, but, as usual, the main focus for the Kids director is on messed up adolescents. Clark's sojourn at the Festival is geographically convenient as the Normandy watering hole is only two hours from Paris.
Clark, who directed sexually explicit scenes in both Bully and Ken Park, has returned to cinema after a long absence with Marfa Girl last year,...
