1h 41m
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard | 101 mins | 2010
An essay on Mediterranean culture and history in triptych form that locates a new, scintillating kind of beauty in the digital image, "Film Socialisme" moves from a cruise ship of venal bourgeois passengers to a portrait of political struggle at a French rest stop before climaxing in a masterful montage that nimbly traverses the long lifespan of the Mare Nostrum.
Please note: per the filmmaker's intentions, some scenes do not contain English subtitles.
