Christian,
you might want to check my essay in the online journal contretemps on the
film "Hypothesis of the Stolen Painting" by Raul Ruiz, which (the film that
is) was done in (planned) collaboration between Klossowski and Ruiz. The
essay is at the following address:
http://www.usyd.edu.au/contretemps/3July2002/goddard.pdf
I tried in this essay to deal with not only the film but raise some
questions about Klossowski's ideas in relation to cinema.
There are several other works that treat this film such as Scott Durham's
book "Phantom Communities," and several works on Ruiz engage with both this
film and his adaptation of "The Suspended Vocation," but most of these works
are only available in French or Spanish (see especially "Raoul Ruiz" by
Christine Buci-Glucksman and Fabrice Revault d'Allones.)
Also Rouge has a special issue on Ruiz that includes annotations on both
these films.

On Klossowski in general there is a small but growing bibliography and in
terms of the more obscure Pierre Zucca film "Les Barres Parellels" the only
thing I was able to read about it was an interview with Zucca (with photos)
that was published in the Australian art journal Art and Text (presumably
translated from an original French source), from a special issue on
Klossowski back in the early 90's.
Your symposium sounds very interesting and I will be writing to you offline
about participating in it.
