L'UNE CHANTE, L'AUTRE PAS (1977) - One sings, the other doesn't... Agnès Varda focuses on the intertwined lives of two women brought together during the struggle of the Women’s Movement in 1970’s France. A subject that remains all too familiar wih Varda, who was personally involved in feminist politics. VAGABOND (1985) - Sandrine Bonnaire won a Best Actress César for her portrayal as Mona - a young and defiant drifter in this tragic story. Using a largely non-professional cast Varda recollects Mona’s story through flashbacks of those who encountered her, producing a splintered portrait of an enigmatic woman. JACQUOT DE NANTES (1991) - It’s the story of a child and his obsession of pursuing his dream to become a filmmaker. How he buys his first camera, shoots his first amateur film, which marks the beginning of one of the most prestigious careers of any French director, Jacques Demy. The story is told with emotion by Agnès Varda, who shared his life for years.

(aka "Les plages d'Agnès" )
directed by Agnès Varda
France 2008
Beaches have always been important
to Agnès Varda, as she would travel
to the seaside every Easter and
summer throughout her childhood.
During the Second World War she was
exiled in the costal town of Sète, a
period she recalls with fondness as
a time of endless fun. Returning to
Sète during the late 50’s, she would
use the locale and the local
fishermen as the backdrop for her
remarkable first feature film, LA
POINTE COURTE. |
