les Bergers: She blew in like the wind. No plans, no goals... No wishes, no wants... We suggested things to her. She didn't want to do a thing. Wandering? That's withering. By proving she's useless, she helps a system she rejects. It's not wandering, it's withering.

The works of Varda, whose techniques are consummate. My personal favorite is the intersection with the philosopher and the Tunisian, where the capital-poor nihilist ends up dying. She used to be confident, happy and fearful, and hoped for stability after wandering. We seem to know her a little bit, but we don't seem to know her at all. In our eyes, she is just a corpse without an identity.

1985 Venice Golden Lion Award. A pure wanderer, a woman who is always on the road, would rather live briefly and freely than be integrated into the discipline of the system. Varda used pseudo-documentary methods and [Citizen Kane]'s onion-peeling multi-perspective interviews to piece together the life fragments of the homeless woman, and sometimes placed her on the edge of the frame. In the end, we can’t really understand the inner world of the heroine. She is more like the incarnation of an actor pursuing pure freedom. Although she can’t be accepted by the viewers empathetically, she constantly asks hypocrisy and the huge society. Snare. In the flashback narrative, the characters often break the fourth wall, further strengthening the film's alienation effect. It is a typical New Wave imaging strategy to induce reflection, rather than make people identify. (8.5/10)
