The legendary Jean-Luc Godard adds to his legacy with this ambitious collage film essay. Fans of his sprawling, multi-part Histoire(s) du Cinema series will have some idea of what to expect: a lifetime of received images, sounds, and ideas, broken down to their essentials and re-mixed into thrilling, gnomic salvos. Here, Godard’s approaches to multi-channel sound are intensely physical and often astonishing, providing a novel and disorienting form for Godard’s far-reaching inquiries into the histories of representation and global violence.
