Cléo from 5 to 7
“The whole world... has made an appointment with...”
Drama
Agnès Varda eloquently captures Paris in the sixties with this real-time portrait of a singer set adrift in the city as she awaits test results of a biopsy. A chronicle of the minutes of one woman’s life, Cléo from 5 to 7 is a spirited mix of vivid vérité and melodrama, featuring a score by Michel Legrand and cameos by Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina.
VIBE
A chic, melancholic, and deeply contemplative slow-burn, this film immerses you in a real-time, existential journey. Its French New Wave style, marked by black-and-white cinéma vérité, evokes a profound sense of identity and mortality amidst the vibrant, yet isolating, urban experience. It's an introspective, art house meditation.
