Synopsis

Desplechin filme son père, son frère Fabrice et ses neveux dans la maison familiale de Roubaix à la veille de la vente de celle-ci. Le film est la deuxième expérience « documentaire » du cinéaste après le travail sur Léo, en jouant « Dans la compagnie des hommes » et Unplugged, en jouant « Dans la compagnie des hommes ». Le film contient de nombreux éléments de repère permettant de décoder les autres films du cinéaste (La Vie des morts ; Léo, en jouant « Dans la compagnie des hommes » ; Esther Kahn, etc.). Il fournit ainsi diverses clefs (maison familiale, architecture urbaine, cimetière, conversation entre père et fils, etc.) facilitant l'accès à son univers cinématographique et biographique.

Fascinated by the power of the camera and obsessed with the theories of Russian film pioneer Dziga Vertov, a filmmaker decides to get a camera eye to replace the real eye he lost as a child. This visionary quest begins on the operating table where a surgeon grafts a prototype ocular implant into his eye socket. Seeking a microscopic camera that could be incorporated into his artificial eye so he could secretly film whatever he sees, the filmmaker explores the futuristic technology that could make this possible, while revisiting chapters of his own past.

En 1969, Pasolini voyage à travers la Tanzanie et l’Ouganda à la recherche des décors et des personnages de son prochain film : une adaptation de L'Orestie" d’Eschyle dans l’Afrique contemporaine. Il commente à voix haute, interroge les visages, les paysages, les situations et lit de larges et significatifs passages d’Eschyle. Il confronte ses idées, ses notes de voyage avec un groupe d’étudiants africains installés à l’université de Rome. Le film ne verra jamais le jour, mais ces notes filmées (et montées) par le cinéaste offrent une médiation sur l’indépendance, les promesses de la démocratie et le passage de l’âge archaïque à la civilisation moderne.

The film looks at the relationship between Polley's parents, Michael and Diane Polley, including the revelation that the filmmaker was the product of an extramarital affair between her mother and Montreal producer Harry Gulkin. It incorporates interviews with Polley's siblings from her mother's two marriages, interviews with other relatives and family friends, Michael Polley's narration of his memoir, and Super-8 footage shot to look like home movies of historical events in her family's life. The cast in the Super-8 re-creations includes Rebecca Jenkins, who plays Diane – who had died of cancer, on January 10, 1990—the week of Polley's 11th birthday.

The film combines clips from Tarkovsky's films with footage of Tarkovsky on the set of his last film The Sacrifice and on his deathbed, during the final stage of his battle with cancer. The film mostly relies on images, with only sparse commentary, and concentrates mainly on giving insight into Tarkovsky's work and philosophy and on exploring the intersections between his private life and his work. The film starts with a scene from Tarkovsky first film Ivan's Childhood and ends with a parallel scene from his last film The Sacrifice. It shows the reunion of Tarkovsky with his son Andrei Jr., who had been allowed to leave the Soviet Union only after Tarkovsky was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. Apart from Andrei Tarkovsky himself the film shows, among others, his second wife Larisa Tarkovskaya, his son Andrei Jr., the editor of the film The Sacrifice Michal Leszczylowski, the French actress Valérie Mairesse, the Swedish cinematographer Sven Nykvist and the Russian actress Margarita Terekhova.
