The film starts at 8:00 p.m.

Varda par Agnès (2019) is the personal, charming, and incisive self-portrait of Agnès Varda. In this documentary, she looks back on over sixty years of filmmaking with a fresh, playful, and sometimes moving perspective. Varda combines fragments from her films, photographs, installations, and personal memories with reflections on art, life, and the craft of filmmaking. 

More than a retrospective, it is a conversation with Varda herself: she speaks candidly about her choices, failures, and successes, while her curiosity and humor remain ever-present. The film showcases not only the versatility of her oeuvre, but also the person behind it: a cineaste who remained independent, engaged, and light-footed until the end of her life.
