Kommunisten

A 81 ans, Jean-Marie Straub se propose une fois encore de surprendre et d’inventer. Kommunisten se compose de six parties dont cinq extraites de ses oeuvres précédentes. Il ne s’agit pas ici pour Jean-Marie Straub de s’auto-citer mais bien au contraire de faire s’entrechoquer différents blocs (de textes, de temps et de langues) pour mettre en lumière l’invisible des sentiments et du politique. C’est un film d’aventures dont il s’agit là, de l’aventure Humaine, du siècle passé et de celui qui vient. Ou comment vivre ensemble un jour peut-être…

Composed in six parts, Communists (Kommunisten) re-ignites scenes from the diverse filmography of Straub and Huillet, moving from Switzerland to Italy to Egypt, to chart a story of resistance across the 20th century.

Un manifesto del proprio pensiero e una summa del proprio cinema, questo è il Kommunisten che Jean-Marie Straub costruisce con pezzi di suoi film precedenti preceduti da un segmento girato a partire dal libro Le Temps du Mépris dello scrittore André Malraux. Un film testamento dell'opera di Jean-Marie Straub e Daniéle Huillet, la coppia di registi premiata nel 2005 a Venezia per l'innovazione del linguaggio cinematografico, che restano esempio luminoso, etico ed estetico, di un cinema rigoroso quanto libero.
