From Stalingrad to Jaurès

Overview

From Stalingrad to Jaurès was shot in the 90’s in Paris. At that time I was watching Godard films, walking, taking the Metro, looking at the Genie de la Bastille, filming a torso and eating baguette. I brought the different elements together and introduced a spinning 10 franc coin, a fall guy and a crime jazz music score. It is a return to black and white 16mm single screen film for me and also a return to the image of the male torso, that I first used in my film Claiming Territory in 1993.
