Godard spent TEN YEARS in Swiss exile obsessing over cinema's corpse. The result? Absolutely unhinged brilliance.
A very personal look at the history of cinema directed, written and edited by Jean-Luc Godard in his Swiss residence in Rolle for ten years (1988-98); a monumental collage, constructed from film fragments, texts and quotations, photos and paintings, music and sound, and diverse readings; a critical, beautiful and melancholic vision of cinematographic art.
Editing
Godard's deranged collage technique—history as violent collision.
Sound
Music, whispers, and silence weaponized into pure anxiety.
Writing
Dense philosophical rants that somehow become poetry.

Director
Jean-Luc Godard
