| More Information |
| Details: |
A compelling and disturbing fictionalized documentary, Agnes Varda's award-winning story of a nomadic young drifter in the south of France is a powerful portrait of alienation and spiritual hunger. In an early and captivating performance, Sandrine Bonnaire is Mona, the nomadic girl whose life is revealed in flashbacks after being found dead in a ditch from exposure. As the people who crossed Mona's path reveal their encounters with the mysterious and elusive young woman, little is revealed about her, while a disturbing and alienating vision of society unfolds. |
