Synopsis

If scholars and fans had fun discerning the Brechtian devices and Marxist aesthetics of Godard's past films, the auteur/intellectual puts his lefty geopolitics front and center in Socialism while somehow offering even fewer answers than in filmed treatises like Week End and One Plus One. Broken into three parts, this semi-documentary travels with Patti Smith and fellow passengers on a ferry across the Mediterranean, documents an avant-garde performance at a gas station, and slices and dices archival footage with rhetoric designed to agitate or amuse, depending on your viewpoint. Includes two subtitle options: Godard's Navajo subtitles, from the theatrical version and a full English translation.

Jean-Luc Godard---France/Switzerland---2010---101 mins.
