Love Would Have Sufficed, Even for Nietzsche

2026 · 25 min

A quiet, contemplative essay-film that unfolds like a meditation on love and memory, asking patience and rewarding it with reflective resonance.

Directed by
Pierre Creton
Overview
“Love is not made to console, no doubt — it is made to save. But we know all too well that one is only ever saved once. And only for as long as that once endures.” Inspired by The Eternal Return, Michel Surya’s novel, the film is a portrait of the book itself.
