Agnès Varda eloquently captures Paris in the sixties with this real-time portrait of a singer (Corinne Marchand) set adrift in the city as she awaits test results of a biopsy. A chronicle of the minutes of one woman’s life, Cléo from 5 to 7 is a spirited mix of vivid vérité and melodrama, featuring a score by Michel Legrand (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg) and cameos by Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina.

MASTERS: AGNÈS VARDA
Agnès Varda was the only female director of the French New Wave, called both the movement’s mother and its grandmother. Join Calgary Cinematheque for the second film in our retrospective series of Agnès Varda films during January And February. Using the skills she honed early in her career as a photographer, Varda created some of the most nuanced, thought-provoking films of the past fifty years.
