| "Tristana" is a 1987 song recorded by the French artist Mylène Farmer. Fourth single from her first studio album Cendres de Lune, the song was released in February 1987. As for the previous single "Libertine", the music video was produced as a film, with many extras and a huge budget. The video, directed by Laurent Boutonnat, was shot for five days in La Chapelle-en-Vercors, France. The video, whose scene takes place in the snowy steppes, was inspired by the story "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" in a Russian version, during the revolution of October 1917, as evidenced by the archival images used throughout the video. Real tribute to the revolutionary Soviet Russian film director and film theorist Sergei Eisenstein, it was dedicated to Max Gautier, Farmer's father, who died a few months earlier.

Triste sort tristana Tu sais, crois-moi Trois petites tours, elle s´en va La vie comme ça Les plus beaux jours s´achèvent dans la peine, haine Pourquoi faut-il payer de ... |
