Danièle Huillet, Jean-Marie Straub, 1989, 42’

In Schwarze Sünde, Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub return to Friedrich Hölderlin's Empedocles and the Etna. It is a dark political text and the characters that have remained walk on black ashes like ghosts of another world. It is a text of farewell and remembrance.

FILM
Le genou d’Artemide
Jean-Marie Straub, 2008, 26’

For Le genou d’Artemide, Jean-Marie Straub once again chose a dialogue by Cesare Pavese. And not just any dialogue, but one that tears open a painful, mystical abyss between love and the one left behind.

« Ce retour sur l’œuvre passée n’est en rien un repli sur soi, il témoigne au contraire d’une persévérance. »
