In Godard we trust!
Revolutionary, iconoclast, eternal innovator.
Jean-Luc Godard was the epitome of an auteur and a modern film artist.
A portrait in the spirit of Godard, GODARD CINEMA is divided into six chapters, each inspired by phases of his life’s work, spanning the 40 years from his breakthrough with Breathless in 1960 to his late magnum opus Histoire(s) du cinéma.
In trying to uncover the real Jean-Luc, filmmaker Cyril Leuthy sat down with Godard’s many collaborators, friends, and critics who have a lot to say about an eternal rebel who was still exhausting himself in the hunt for a perfect cinema, even with 140 films under his belt.
Weaving a tapestry of iconic scenes together – from Godard’s beloved classics to his more challenging, esoteric work GODARD CINEMA offers a portrait of a man whose constant reinvention of himself and the boundaries of the medium changed the fabric of the filmic art form, whose repercussions will be felt long after his last breath.
