Synopsis

Made in collaboration with Jacques Demy in the last year of his life, this is the first of Agnès Varda’s cinematic tributes to her longtime husband. The director crafts a docudrama retelling of Demy’s childhood, focusing on his growing vocation for cinema in these years.

MUBI's take

Agnès Varda’s fascinating, formally bold portrait-tribute to her partner of 32 years, Jacques Demy, recounts his influences and inspirations, his beginnings as an artist, and constructs its own (extra-marital) intertextual relationship between Varda and Demy’s two singular styles of filmmaking.
