DESIRE

L’ATALANTE
Jean Vigo | FRA | 1934 | 85’
With: Maria do Carmo Piçarra (researcher) e Regina Guimarães (writer and videographer)
Jean (Jean Dasté) and Juliette (Dita Parlo) have just married. With no time to loose, the couple embarks on ""Atalante"", Jean's boat. Awaiting them is Père Jules (Michel Simon), an old sailor, and a young man (Louis Lefebvre). Initially fascinated by a life of adventure, Juliette instead takes a lucid look at her future, imprisioned in a boat, in ports. Her opportunity arrives when Juliette finds herself near Paris and wants to visit it. Once there, she is robbed and can't return to the boat, as Jean waits for her, feeling abandoned. In the hands of Jean Vigo, this apparently ordinary tale of conjugal love becomes a hurtful romantic reverie on desire and hope. A surprisingly erotic idyl and a conscious meditation on love, L'Atalante, Jean Vigo's single feature film, is one of the most singular moments of the history of cinema.
