Cast of

Pierre or The Ambiguities

An alternate longer TV version of Pola X entitled Pierre ou les ambiguïtés, edited in three one-hour episodes was shown for the first time on September 24, 2001 on Arte German-French TV channel. The original “Pola” title is the acronym of “Pierre ou les ambiguïtés”. The episodes were titled 'A la lumière', 'A l'ombre des lumières' and 'Dans le sang'. The new sequences explore the dreams of Peter and his relationship with his mother, sister and fiancée. In an interview with Jacques Morice, Carax stated that "it is not an 'extended version' or a 'final version' of the film Pola X, but a different proposition for television."
