Jane B. par Agnès V.

An intimate portrait of Jane Birkin, filmed a few years after her split with Serge Gainsbourg. Eschewing the typical interview format, Agnès Varda orchestrates a visual conspiracy of metaphorical sketches where Jane and other New Wave stars — from Jean-Pierre Léaud to Varda herself — constantly shift masks and roles. It is an inventive, stylish, and funny piece of filmmaking that echoes the energy of 'Everything Everywhere All at Once.' French audio with Russian and English subtitles. 4K screening. Registration via the link in sunset's bio or in the comments.
