Our take
Jean-Luc Godard’s close collaborator Fabrice Aragno directs this stunning visual tone poem, which sets human endeavor adrift in the immense splendor of nature. An expeditionary cinematic experience composed of Turneresque waterscapes and enveloping sound design, The Lake touches the sublime.
