Nous sommes tous encore ici

Emerging out of Miéville’s decades-spanning collaboration with Jean-Luc Godard and structured like a concerto, in three interrelated movements, scenes of daily life are transformed into a lyrical contemplation of time through the recital of texts, first by Plato and then Hannah Arendt. In the film’s final act, elements of these texts combine in the form of a dialogue between a couple played by Godard and Aurore Clément. With Bernadette Lafont.

Preceded by Faire la fête Anne-Marie Miéville (1986) 13 mins – Unclassified 15+, in which a couple attempt an intimate conversation against a noisy crowd.
