Synopsis

After a road accident, a writer and his wife move to an island to recuperate. He soon recovers from his injuries and begins writing his next novel, seeking inspiration from the local people. His wife, however, has lost her voice and can only communicate through written notes.

Our take

Agnès Varda returns to the topic of marriage a year after Le bonheur in this kooky and inspired science-fiction romance. Starring French cinema legends Michel Piccoli and Catherine Deneuve and shot in black and white with expressive tints of color, it proves Varda is a magician of the unexpected.
