Sans Soleil & La Jetée

Thursday, May 22, 2025, 7:30 p.m., Dryden Theatre

La Jetée

(Chris Marker, France 1962, 28 min., 16mm)

Sans Soleil

(Chris Marker, France 1983, 100 min., DCP, French with English subtitles)

Marker's practically indescribable masterpiece is a fascinating movie essay on the nature of time and memory. With spellbinding words and images, Marker shuttles us around the globe to such places as Japan, Guinea-Bissau, Iceland, and San Francisco. The overall effect is similar to reading a letter from an old friend. Preceded by La Jetée, Marker's most renowned film, which uses still photographs for its story of a man who attempts time travel in the aftermath of a nuclear war
