Created and written by Marc FERRERO, Based on the original works by Marc FERRERO
Technological progress is a good servant but a bad master...
L'EMPIRE DE L'ACCÉLÉRATION is soon to become an international film or series, designed to be adapted for many cities around the world. Marc FERRERO has just signed with the ALDAMISA production company (producer of SIN CITY).
The concept is as follows: each city annexed by the Empire of Acceleration can become the setting for a new adventure. It's a series about the evolution of society: technology, power, money, the people behind it all. It's a reflection on the balance of the world we live in. In an epic confrontation, the protagonist takes on the leader of the empire, Lord TRUELOVE, in a battle that pits the power of creativity and the human spirit against the cold mechanizations of accelerating society.
The genesis of l'Empire de l'Accélération: a painter faced with his work is a mind in perpetual questioning, linked to a hand that works relentlessly. It's a relatively slow process, in which high technology is totally absent because it's unnecessary. However, a work that comes out of the studio cannot exist in today's world without the efficiency and speed of today's best connected tools. Once the success of the painted work has been confirmed, the painter is confronted with the phenomenon of acceleration that success brings. The comic strip L'Empire de l'Accélération was created by imagining the imbalances between these three concepts: the human mind alone in the face of creation, the use of connected tools leading to the recognition of a work, and the principle of acceleration due to success.
"A profound reflection on our modern society, our relationship with time, our identity and the relentless pursuit of instant gratification, all wrapped up in a series of dystopian and fantastical adventures within the Empire of Acceleration, with a touch of humor to entertain you along the way..."
It's a story that expresses the delicate balance between time, high technology and the talents that the human spirit is capable of developing.This story unfolds as an inspiring saga of societal challenges, where the message of hope is carried around the world by heroes who reflect our own vulnerabilities while being the chosen ones in their own disciplines.
"A fast-paced adventure series that will captivate viewers while offering profound reflections on the themes of resistance, freedom and the dangers of a world plunged into efficiency at all costs."
In a world where time as we know it today is obsolete, Lord Truelove's austere reign demands an accelerated pace. Individuals wear connected masks for maximum efficiency. They are pushed to extremes by the artificial effects of dream-ready capsules, which blur the boundaries between reality and illusion. This concept of an accelerated society is really just a cover for capturing all the planet's riches. However, in the midst of this intimidating landscape, a group of intrepid souls emerges who see beyond the façade. These heroes, each from different cultures and corners of the world, recognize the degradation of their environment and embark on a relentless battle to raise awareness and restore human time.
Their journey is a testament to the power of the human spirit and the potential for renewal. By challenging the status quo and striving to restore life's precious rhythms, these heroes inspire hope. They illustrate how, even in an age of accelerated existence and manufactured emotions, humanity can reconnect with its fundamental values. Their crusade is not only a battle to reclaim human time, but also a call to convince people that the tools of acceleration are good servants but bad masters.
LORD TRUELOVE: The Mystery Man
The public only had a fleeting glimpse of his rare golden appearances, probably due to his multi-faceted mask adorned with gold, bronze and encrusted with precious stones. But who was he really? The greatest star the world had ever known? Quite possibly. Since the dawn of time, before time itself, who has dared to alter the value of time? He had.
The marketing geniuses had built an impregnable fortress around this man; nobody knew his name, his face or his past. Today, we can only see him as the refined and complete product of his own conception. Of course, history is always written by the victors, and in this case, it can only be for their benefit.
His ever-growing audience adored him and would follow him to the ends of the earth.
Key characters: the heroes of LA COMITIVE
Their respective abilities reflect contemporary society, so the audience of this series will experience both inaccessibility and identification. They are interconnected with each other and with other key characters in the series via a secret network called "THE COMITIVE".

The magical power of Question Mark marbles :
To defeat the forces of the Acceleration Empire, it was necessary to combine the talents of Comitive heroes Lisa L'Aventura, Don Cello Cordoba and Andrew Spencer Percival, with a magical weapon developed by a painter and some rebel engineers. Question Mark's balls are a high-tech mix capable of creating a diversion to destabilize the robots of the Empire of Acceleration, turning them into easy prey for our heroes.
Coming soon...
