Plot
Cléo, a young singer in Paris, waits for the result of a medical test that may reveal she has cancer. Over ninety minutes of real time she walks through the city, visits a fortune teller, shops, sings with her musicians and talks to a soldier on leave in a park. Agnès Varda's 1962 film, a New Wave landmark, becomes a gentle meditation on mortality and on seeing and being seen.
Sinekatalog’s take
Agnès Varda follows a singer in real time as she waits for medical test results in Paris. Light and philosophical, it watches Cléo notice the world and herself, a landmark of the New Wave.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
