Do you still remember how, long ago, we trained our thoughts?
Most often we’d start from a dream…
We wondered how, in total darkness,
colours of such intensity could emerge within us.
In a soft, low voice
Saying great things,
Surprising, deep and accurate matters.
Image and words
Like a bad dream written on a stormy night.
Under western eyes.
The lost paradises.
War is here.
Winner of the Cannes Special Palme d’Or, Jean-Luc Godard's final feature film is a bracing, beautiful and confrontational essay film interrogating our relationship with film, culture and global politics.
This screening will be followed by a Q&A.
