Goodbye to Language 

Goodbye to Language 

The pioneering and massively influential nouvelle vague filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard passed away this September at the age of 91. He leaves behind a profound legacy of cinematic thought, narrative innovation, and formal experimentation. With his 42nd feature film, the auteur again reconceived his ever-evolving practice with his first and only foray into 3D, made possible through a deep collaboration with cinematographer Fabrice Aragno, who conceived and crafted unique rigs to create their desired visual impact. The result is an immersive, charged, sensorial vision of brilliance and inquiry as only Godard could produce.
