Sans Soleil - The First Minute

This is the first minute of Chris Marker's landmark SANS SOLEIL.

This film is endless poetry about life, memory and time, captured in poetic images. This film is what Goddard dreamed of filming in his life but yet he could not achieve in this level of sincerity or purity. Chris Maker made a miracle. Sans Soleil is in my top 3 films ever made.

Quite possibly the best opening to any film ever.

I've never been able to see happiness in those images. This clip always makes me so sad.

I think it's kinda funny how this caused my mother to be contacted by a film-maker.
Yes. It's my mother there, walking with two of her siblings in the opening scene called "happiness".

Just saw this film, it really blew me away. I think that i need to see it a few more times to understand it, it's just that potent and full of meaning and purpose. I think everyone who loves cinema should watch this film at least 3 times. I know i will.
