The film intercuts footage of the Rolling Stones working on the song “Sympathy for the Devil” in a studio; Anne Wiazemsky as “Eve Democracy,” sauntering through London in a gown as she is being interviewed by a TV reporter; and other scenes examining capitalism, activism, and political conflict.

Shot soon after the events of ‘68, Godard’s punchy politico-pop film focuses on footage of the Rolling Stones rehearsing in long, unedited takes. The era’s radical politics bubble forth from the tableaux of Black Power militants—and the potent persona of Godard’s collaborator, Anne Wiazemsky.
