| Brief Description: | Two alien beings, brought together in an empty earth space, are
exposed to our culture via its popular images--a compelling experiment
that not only foreshadows the use of these images in Godard's later
films but also explains precisely why these images are the building
blocks of any film. As Godard explains at the end, "This film is not
and cannot be an attempt to explain cinema or embody its object, but
merely suggests effective ways to achieve it. This is not the film
that should be made, but if a film is to be made it must follow some
of the paths shown here." With Jean-Pierre Leaud and Juliet Berto.
