About the film

A love letter to legendary Nouvelle vague film-maker Eric Rohmer and the world capital of cinema. The film begins with the story of a chance encounter with Rohmer in 1994, while he was filming “Rendez-vous in Paris” on location in Montmartre. This accidental connection becomes the basis for a heartfelt film essay exploring Rohmer’s lifelong relationship with the city and the many cinematic journeys he made through it. Innovatively combining biographical documentary, psychogeographic montage, speculative fiction, and mashup, the film provides a narrated tour of Rohmer’s works, of modern Paris, and of the pains and pleasures of cinephilia.
