Le monde extérieur

Directed by Stéphane Breton

A poetic stroll that doubles as a lilliputian ethnography and Lilliputian ethnography, filmed downstairs in the streets of Paris. It's a kind of Eux et moi in reverse, with the filmmaker directing his camera his camera to the people of his village, whom he observes through the deceptively candid eyes of a distant friend, unaware of the city and the crowd, to whom he addresses himself pretending to wonder about things that are so simple that they seem endowed with a secret life.
