Viva Varda!

Pierre-Henri Gibert
France, 2023

Bay Area Premiere

featuring

Rosalie Varda, Mathieu Demy, Sandrine Bonnaire, Patricia Mazuy,

For the first time, a film about the groundbreaking French filmmaker Agnès Varda, not made by herself: Gibert’s Viva Varda! reveals a new perspective on the influential filmmaker’s life and work, with never-before-seen archival footage and illuminating interviews with her family, friends, and collaborators. Varda herself is an instantly recognizable figure, and she cleverly branded herself and her unique sensibilities. This documentary offers biographical details of her early life and rebellious spirit, while shedding light on her creativity, pragmatism, and business acumen.
