Dances on the Snow Dances on the Snow is a science fiction novel written by the Russian sci-fi and fantasy writer Sergey Lukyanenko. Despite the fact that the novel was written later, it is considered to be an indirect prequel to the novel "Genome". It takes place in the same fictional universe as "Genome", about one hundred years prior to the novel's time frame. Unlike "Genome", "Dances on the Snow" hardly deals with the issue of genetic engineering but does touch on the issue of cloning. However, the biggest focus is the problems of free choice and mind control.

Cinéma du look Cinéma du look (] ) was a French film movement of the 1980s, analysed, for the first time, by French critic Raphaël Bassan in "La Revue du Cinéma" issue n° 448, May 1989, in which he classified Luc Besson, Jean-Jacques Beineix and Leos Carax as directors of "le look". These directors were said to favor style over substance, spectacle over narrative. It referred to films that had a slick, gorgeous visual style and a focus on young, alienated characters who were said to represent the marginalized youth of François Mitterrand's France. Themes that run through many of their films include doomed love affairs, young people more affiliated to peer groups rather than families, a cynical view of the police, and the use of scenes in the Paris Métro to symbolise an alternative, underground society. The mixture of 'high' culture, such as the opera music of "Diva" and "Les Amants du Pont-Neuf," and pop culture, for example the references to Batman in "Subway", was another key feature.
