Directed by Germaine Dulac
France, 1928
Avant-Garde, Short

Synopsis

I evoke a dancing woman. A woman ? No. A bouncing line with harmonious rhythm. I evoke a luminous projection on veils ! Precise matter ! No. Fluid rhythms. Why should one disregard, on screen, the pleasure that movement brings us in the theatre ? Harmony of lines. Harmony of light.
