France | 1974 | DCP | 80min | MR: 14 years old

Immersion in the depths of the faces of three women while they gestually respond to stimuli always invisible to the viewer, whether interior, fired by reflection and emotions, or exterior, coming from somewhere off-screen. Sadness, pain, anger, grief, fear, resignation and melancholy appear in the eyes of the three actresses, all portrayed in minute detail by Garrel.

Le Berceau de Cristal

Philippe Garrel | Le Berceau de Cristal

France | 1975 | 35mm | 80min | MR: 14 years old

In an almost completely dark room, a woman lying on a bed dressed in black smokes a cigarette, reads, writes something, gets up and walks, plays a few notes on a keyboard. A man, also alone, stands against a marble column. An artist works on his paintings. Garrel looks at the loneliness of these unrelated characters.
