2000 Cinématons

2001 · 93 min

A slow, talky, self-aware parade of artists staring into a camera, equal parts vanity and quiet philosophical curiosity.

Overview
A film about an ongoing cinematic adventure that began in 1978: a vast anthology of personality portraits called Cinématons, dealing with people in the arts. Historical, ethnological, sociological and psychological, this anthology is a living record of the artistic community of the last 20th century which attempts to answer these questions: Why film everyone? Why choose cultural personalities? How do the subjects look at their image? How much exhibitionism and narcissism is involved in being filmed?
