Description
A response to the alienation of dominant discourse and the simplistic use of images, this multiple, protean work—yet highly coherent in its totality—is an enclave in the history of protest cinema.
The experimental apparatus on which this film rests—mobilizing a large number of collaborators (filmmakers, actors, writers, journalists, technicians...) around Chris Marker throughout 1966—fully demonstrates that political concerns are not incompatible with aesthetic questions.
