Varda by Agnès

Director: Agnès Varda

2019 / 119min / DCP

In what would be her final film, which draws upon archival footage, clips drawn from the whole of her filmography, and an abundance of onstage interviews and lectures, Varda offers a guided tour of her remarkable life, from her early years as a still photographer, her fiction and documentary film work, to her late-in-life turn to gallery installation pieces. A tender farewell from an artist to her audience as well as a summation of an eternally curious, tirelessly experimental, and steadfastly politically engaged career. “A breathtaking self-portrait by an artist at the height of her powers.”—Artforum
