Book tickets

In an abandoned television studio, two people (Juliet Berto and Jean-Pierre Leaud) embark on a series of late night dialogues in an attempt to develop an analysis of the relation between images and sounds, politics and film.

Starring Juliet Berto and Jean-Pierre Leaud, and loosely adapting Jean-Jacques Rousseau's Émile, Le gai savoir is in the words of the films characters and Godard himself an attempt to 'return to zero'.
