Marguerite Duras and Little François
Roger Kahane / France / 1965 / Czech Premiere / 9 min.
synopsis
Marguerite Duras asks seven-year-old François about the future, television, school, the Belphegor, literature, or what is the point of writing, counting... Do you think horses will talk? That children will spend their holidays on the moon? What's the point of television? The admirably conducted conversation does not fall into banal childishness, but interestingly reveals a way of thinking.biography
