    9.5, a prose documentary, the structure is loose, but the director actually uses letters to string everything together, which is really talented. The film has a strong literary flavor, and the Left Bank faction is really...

    This narrative method between three and four stars is still very powerful (in memory, almost no one could survive such a chaotic narrative before the 1980s, and there was no audience) Japan was really developed in the 1980s (so stop watching Eskimos as anthropologists). I have a way to make a film, so it looks stupid) I don’t give a high score mainly because I don’t understand why Africa and finally Iceland must be added, and I don’t think it’s inexplicable that I didn’t understand...

Sans Soleil quotes

  • Narrator: As for the students, some massacred each other in the mountains in the name of revolutionary purity, while others had studied capitalism so thoroughly to fight it that they now provide it with its best executives.

  • [first lines]

    Narrator: The first image he told me about was of three children on a road in Iceland in 1965. He said that for him that it was the image of happiness and also that he had tried several times to link it to other images. But, it never worked. He wrote me, "One day I'll have to put it all alone at the beginning of a film with a long piece of black leader. If they don't see happiness in the picture, at least they'll see the black."
