Ulysse, Uncle Yanco, and Documenteur
Ulysse
“A goat, a child and a man by the sea. That's a photo I took in 1954: the goat was dead, the child's name was Ulysse, and the man was naked”: thirty years later, Agnès Varda returns to a photo taken on a beach to explore memory, reality and imagination in this CESAR-winning film.
• Directed and Written by Agnès Varda. (1983, 22 mins, In French with English titles, 35mm, Color)
Uncle Yanco
A portrait of the late artist/raconteur and Sausalito celebrity Jean Varda by his niece Agnès Varda.
• Directed and Written by Agnès Varda. (1968, 20 mins, English narration, 35mm, Print from PFA Collection)
Documenteur: An Emotion Picture
Conceived as a shadow film to Varda's upbeat Murs Murs (on Los Angeles' murals), Documenteur stars Varda's editor Sabine Mamou as a French woman “suffering from exile” while living in Los Angeles with her young son (played by Mathieu Demy, Varda and Jacques Demy's son). Varda describes it as “a film that exists between image and sound...meant to leave room to add our own feelings to the film, to complete its emotional load.”
• Directed and Written by Agnès Varda. Photographed by Nurith Aviv. Edited by Sabine Mamou. With Sabine Mamou, Mathieu Demy, Lisa Blok, Tina Odom. (1981, 65 mins, In French with English titles, Color)
