L’enfance de l’art
Jean-Luc Godard, Anne-Marie Miéville, 1990, CH, FR, video, 8'
A woman, a child, a man and another child, the noise of bombs falling and of planes passing by, in a urban landscape destroyed by war. A man dies before he had the time to write on the back of Delacroix’ La liberté guidant le peuple: that could be the plot, just the enigma consisting of a missing word. A question opened before death, resolved by a child, the shadow and spirit of Gavroche.
