Agnès Varda, photographer, installation artist and pioneer of the Nouvelle Vague, is an institution of French cinema. Taking a seat on a theatre stage, she uses photos and film excerpts to provide an insight into her unorthodox oeuvre.
An unpredictable documentary from a fascinating storyteller, Agnès Varda's next film sheds light on her experience as a director, bringing a personal insight to what she calls "cine-writing," traveling from Rue Daguerre in Paris to Los Angeles and Beijing.Written by

It's funny how my favorite movie of Agnes Varda ended up being the one about all her movies. It is such a love letter to cinema that it's impossible not to move any film lover. I like many of her movies, especially the documentaries. She had what I would call a very creative pragmatism about making her movies that made them easy to watch and at the same time challenging and interesting. Here it's no different as she looks back at her movies and at her life giving what feels like a very honest take of it all. And it's just incredible that this ended up being her last movie, an unforgettable epilogue to a very influential life.
