Études sur Paris

"Paris, Paris, you know, I would eat it..." wrote André Sauvage. An artist close to the avant-gardes, André Sauvage composed the first great filmed portrait of Paris. Its ambitious symphony of a big city marries, on the music composed by Jeff Mills, the changing rhythm of the Belle Époque. Contemporary of the dizzying explorations of Dziga Vertov and Walter Ruttmann, Sauvage is less fascinated by speed than by the repertoire of urban mobility, attentive to the neighborhoods he crosses, always curious about their furtive inhabitants. He draws a portrait of Paris in five studies: Paris-Port, North-South, the islands of Paris, the Little Belt and from the Saint-Jacques tower to the Sainte-Geneviève mountain.

Serge Daney : le cinéma et le monde
Serge Daney was successively critic and editor of Cahiers du Cinéma in the 60s and 70s, then critic at Libération before founding Trafic a few months before his death. Through the dialogue established between some filmmakers of today and the thought of Serge Daney on the most diverse subjects, the film is the reconstitution of the look of a moviegoer on the world and the confrontation with our time.
