The Darty Report

synopsis

The Darty Report is a 1989 documentary film made by Jean-Luc Godard and Anne-Marie Miéville. The film was originally commissioned by the French retail chain Darty as an advertisement, but Godard created a profound reflection on consumerism and capitalism. The main character is Miss Clio, who in a conversation with a robot symbolizes the consumer. Because of its avant-garde approach, the film was not commercially exploited and Darty tried to limit its distribution. The work is known for its critical look at the relationship between culture and commerce.
