Pétrole is the crowning work of the Italian poet and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini, a novel left unfinished due to the author’s assassination, made up of notes that draw freely from a myriad of literary forms. Against the backdrop of an investigation into the mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of Enrico Mattei, a boss of the Italian hydro energy industry, Pétrole follows the double character Carlo: Carlo 1, a brilliant engineer, and Carlo 2, who is searching for a liberated sexuality, freed from taboos. Pasolini thus exposes his own contradictions and antagonisms, as well as those of his time, without resolving them. Sylvain Creuzevault, a great reader of political history, together with a larger-than-life theatre troupe, elevate the novel to a fragmented, lyrical and impetuous theatre fresco.
