Ciné-Portrait of Raymond Depardon

1983 · 10 min

A brief, unhurried eavesdrop on filmmakers talking shop in a sunlit garden, casual and curious rather than dramatic.

Overview
A fortuitous meeting, late one afternoon, in the garden of the Tuileries, of one or two cameras, a tape recorder, and three cameramen/directors, Raymond Depardon, Jean Rouch, and Philippe Costantini.
