Directed by Chris Marker

Described by Alain Resnais as “the prototype of the twenty-first-century man,” French cine-essayist and multimedia visionary Chris Marker always seemed prophetically ahead of his time—so much so that even now, over a century after his birth, his playful, philosophical, and deeply personal ruminations on time, memory, and the rapid advancement of life on this planet still feel bracingly modern, full of secrets and surprises remaining to be discovered and deciphered. This celebration brings together two formative early works, the typically idiosyncratic travelogues SUNDAY IN PEKING and LETTER FROM SIBERIA, alongside his twin masterpieces: LA JETÉE, a radical tale of time travel told through still images, and SANS SOLEIL, a mind-bending free-form travelogue that journeys from Africa to Japan.
