Director
In this short film, the French photographer, Valérie Jouve explores the way in which an era constructs countless layers of time and space without feeling any need to establish connections between them. The film is about time or, more precisely, the various times that today make up our everyday life.
Director
Valérie Jouve is a weel-known photographer, and Grand Littoral is her first film. Out the outskirts of Marseille, in a landscape criss-crossed by motorways, railways and srubland paths, some figures that seem to be from her famous photos passby and bump into each other. They act as our guides in a tour without beginning or end. How do you look at a place without taking possession of it? How do you describe characters without confining them within a given plot? How do you make the transition from still shots to moving pictures? this brief, musical film leaves us asking these and other unresolved questions.
