Les Mystères du château du dé was the last of the films directed by Man Ray as a personal request (from the marquess of Noailles), under guidelines and was subsequently shown to the public. Far beyond documenting the fun of the aristocracy in a luxury avant-garde environment, it is the expression of an elaborated purpose of aesthetic thought. It is a process of exaltation of the union of the arts projected on the big screen, reaching the paroxysm in the generation of an independent universe from the one that is given, being neither an imitation nor a fragment taken from reality and dependent of it. Man Ray has created a place for utopia, and so doing he is closer to creators of alternative worlds, and also he culminates the regeneration project that was Dada's main aim.
