The late 1970s arrival of electronic music to France is dealt with in the story of 24 hours in the life of a young woman composer in Paris in the 2019 music-filled French drama Le choc du futur (or, in English, The Shock of the Future).

In the Paris of 1978, old formulas do not charm listeners anymore in a male-dominated music industry. Until Ana (Alma Jodorowsky, granddaughter of the great filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky!) uses her synthetizers to make herself heard, creating a new sound that will mark the decades to come: the music of the future.

The film’s soundtrack features such synth-friendly artists as Human League, Devo and Throbbing Gristle.

Directed and co-written by Marc Collin the DVD incarnation of the film includes an interview with Collin and a slideshow.
