Le navire Night

Exploration of the matrix of love, desire and language in her characteristically oblique and experimental style. The film's lovers (Dominique Sanda and Mathieu Carrière) are never allowed to meet in person, instead carrying out their conversations over the phone, using unlisted phone lines leftover from the German occupation of Paris. Elliptical sequences play out in empty streets, nocturnal cityscapes and shadowy interiors, linked together only by the spectral presence of the character's voices.
