Thank you for the link, mamamamam!

It is a 1080p Russian dub and at 2.1 Gb rather large for a 37 minute short. So I made a French-language remux in a more compact size.

This is a sweet and tender, quirky romance, much gentler than Jörg Buttgereit's "Nekromantik 2" (not an FLM film).

[EDIT: The file is 1080p but is likely an upscale, and does not have the clarity of true 1080p. Click the IMG links to expand them for an idea of the image quality.]

1080p French language with French intertitles (as in a silent film, which this is not).
Optional English subtitles.

I am not sure what "Child Blogspot" you mean so I don't know what version that is. The 1080p files mentioned here previously are moderate upscales, not the quality that one would hope for from FHD 1080p.

I still have not done a comparison of the 720p ulozto version with my 1080p version, but I downloaded it.

720p with French audio and optional English or Brazilian Portuguese subtitles:

Maybe the director was concerned that a more somber ending might have totally alienated all audiences, as he had enough trouble getting the film made in the first place. Check out this IMDB Trivia:
When the film passed in front of a commission in charge of the protection of children, a representative of the CNC, Alain Lameyre, launches into a moralizing shootout, denouncing an "apology for pedophilia", a trend that the project however never stated. David Kessler, then president of the CNC, disowned his representative. But the damage is done: Barassat must go back to Elisabeth Guigou, then Minister of Labor, to obtain a favorable opinion. Filming can start. The little girl is found, in the person of Ilona Szabo, and it is the brilliant Portuguese filmmaker João Cesar Monteiro who must play the title role. Alas, seriously ill, he retired. Laurent Terzieff, who had agreed to replace him, also withdraws. A few days before the shoot, Barassat meets Freddy Bournane, an actor with a vampire physique. Authorisation. But, in the meantime, the occupational medicine refuses to give its authorization to the other children appearing in the film. Barassat must find boys aged 16. When it finally turns, its treasury is in the red because of the various delays. The assembly will be done with misery. The projected version lasts 48 minutes, it is banned at least 16 years old but is finally broadcast on Arte.
Note the supposed 10-minute longer projected version. What are we missing, hmm? Is it time for an original "Director's Cut" version to be released on a 4KUHD disc packed with extras? I would pay $60 for that without hesitation.
I finally found the full version! This is so exciting!

I watched Le Nécrophile a long time ago and thought that was all there was to it—but to my surprise, I’ve now discovered there’s much more to it. It’s such a surreal experience, like digging up a bucket of gold in your own backyard.

Director Philippe Barassat actually renamed the full version Amours Mortes, and guess what? It’s not 48 mins long—it’s 1h10mins! That’s nearly double the length of Le Nécrophile!

What amazed me even more is that the film isn’t a silent movie at all. In this full version, we finally get to hear Ilona Szabo’s original voice. The additional scenes also make the story much more coherent and easier to follow.

The only downside is that a pesky timer is visible in some shots, blocking parts of the image—but this is the best version I’ve been able to find.

I don’t understand French, so I really hope someone fluent can help make subtitles.

@endurro @pillowbaker Thank you for offering to help, that's so kind of you!

I've already finished making the English subtitles. Although it took me a lot of time, there are still some parts I'm not very sure about.

The most crucial one is from 0:36:10 to 0:36:31 — that section of dialogue seems to explain why the little girl keeps fainting, which is key to understanding what happens next in the story. But I couldn’t fully make it out, so I just wrote down the vague meaning...

I’d really appreciate it if you could help proofread this part and any other mistakes I might have made(should be a lot).

Thanks so much!

(Besides, my French is honestly REALLY BAD)
