From one paradise to another, from the lost paradise of childhood to the rediscovered paradise of cinema and poetry, Mekas, in his own words, shot the same film for more than half a century, which he titled Diaries, Notes and Sketches when he became aware of it. Beyond the apparent diversity of the works, this small book strives to unravel this tenuous but continuous thread, even if it means confronting the immense work in progress that has just been completed, indirectly for some but also head-on for several of them, examples of this new Odyssey.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonas Mekas, Patrice Rollet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56788857356619,"sku":"SQ7391928","price":12.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/3034\/9643\/files\/rollet_diaries_livre_recto.webp?v=1773411329","url":"https:\/\/re-voir.com\/en\/products\/diaries-notes-and-sketches","provider":"Re:Voir","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
