Jean-Luc Godard returns with THE IMAGE BOOK, a bracing, beautiful and confrontational essay film interrogating our relationship with film, culture and global politics. Soundtracked by a deeply immersive audio mix, it splices together classic film clips and newsreel footage, often stretched, saturated and distorted almost beyond recognition.Winner of the Cannes Special Palme d'Or, this is a journey through layers of light and darkness, sound and silence, innocence and guilt – sometimes disturbing, often moving and always deeply visceral.
