About
Les rendez-vous d’Anna
An interior travelogue tracing the barren trajectory of one woman -- and maybe of film, art, sex, and Europe -- to Hotel Terminus, Anna is one of Akerman's most intriguing and beautiful films, as tender as it is alienated and as searching as it is formally claustrophobic. Made in a time more or less equidistant from our own overstimulated inertia and the zero hour of 1945, its anomie is chillingly prescient.
