Daniel Cohn-Bendit

Jean-Luc Godard is cinema, its quintessence. Just turned 91, he has made more than 140 films. We hate him as much as we worship him. Where does his aura come from? From legendary films of course, but also from Godard himself. He is a public figure as much as a man shrouded in mystery. Everything and its opposite, he has taken all possible paths. It is not easy to seize such a legendary, enigmatic giant. Godard’s itinerary follows one direction only: a constant renewal of his art. He sees the creative act as a necessary act of criticism and deconstruction.” I always start from the negative. I am a positive man who starts from the negative”. The artist reinvents himself tirelessly, and inevitably destroys himself. This portrait wants to take us beyond the clichés of a myth that has sometimes become caricatural, to meet a man more sentimental than it seems, a man inhabited, sometimes surpassed, by his art. Because yes, Godard is human. Not just a machine who thinks and creates images.

Отражающая бытие некой террористической организации, эта «комедия в шести частях об общественных играх, полная напряжения, возбуждения и логики, жестокости и безумия…» посвящена знаменитой Фракции Красной Армии (RAF), наводившей ужас на Германию своими кровавыми акциями, не щадившими даже случайных граждан. Пик активности RAF относится к первой половине 70-х, когда группой руководили Андреас Баадер и Ульрика Майнхоф. Несмотря на то, что имена и обстоятельства в фильме изменены, Фассбиндеру удается глубоко погрузиться в сложные взаимоотношения внутри организации, показать сплетенность личных и общественных мотиваций ее членов, а заодно увидеть и внутреннюю фашизоидность окружения — законопослушных обывателей. Объявления же на стенах туалетов (используемые как эпиграфы между частями) символизируют всеобщую нехватку сексуального удовлетворения — без которого, по Фассбиндеру, всякая революция обречена на провал.
