Jean-Paul Fargier

Jean-Paul Fargier vidéo

Humorous portrait of the great specialist of video art in France. From one of his lectures only the silences remain. It's up to us to imagine what he might have said about video art. Removing speeches on video to become video.

La Fin des Pyrénées

This bitter and ironic satire illustrates the universal problems with youth and their revolt against the bourgeois establishment. The man becomes a symbolic victim of what he is protesting and resigns himself to a gloomy future with bleak prospects for humankind. This directorial debut for Jean Pierre Lajournade was well received at the 1970 Mannheim Film Festival.

Le politique

A docudrama examining diverse variations on the theme of French filmmakers' political engagement or not alongside the working class with, as a parallel metaphor, the case of the mutiny on the Battleship Potemkin in 1905 in Russia.
