1950 film directed by Jacques Rivette

A compilation of the most spectacular TV moments thanks to the presence and evocation of Jean-Luc Godard on the small screen. Godard's presence has never been, and never will be, anodyne or banal. The subversion of everyday television.

The co-founder of the Gamma press agency, Raymond Depardon, created this documentary of press photographers in Paris and their subjects by following the photographers around for one month, in October, 1980. In-between long hours waiting for a celebrity to emerge from a restaurant or a hotel, boredom immediately switches to fast action as the cameras click and roll when the person appears. The reaction to the gaggle of photographers is as varied as the people they often literally chase all around town. While some of the celebrities, such as Jacques Chirac who was mayor of Paris at the time, are perceived as comical caricatures, others are shown simply going about ordinary pursuits — including Catherine Deneuve, Gene Kelly, and Jean-Luc Godard.

A daring deconstruction of consumerist behavior featuring a robot and Miss Clio Darty, with a voiceover by Godard and Anne-Marie Miéville, this philosophical "report," like so many of Godard's commissions, was rejected by its funders.

Explores the complex relationship between the spirit, body, and mind. The film is a nightmare with closed eyes because it counts among the most terrible moments of my life, my second exile, which lasted a very long time. Inspired by an ancient Hindu legend.

Agnès, a bourgeois young woman from Geneva, writes a letter to a friend, telling how she ended up cheating on her husband. Fascinated by the attitudes and gestures adopted by a prostitute to attract clients, Agnès decides to imitate her and seduces the first man she sees, sitting on a garden bench.

A politically oriented film in which images suggestive of a mock western are accompanied by an attack on all cinematic conventions to date and a debate on the nature and possibility of revolutionary cinema.

A documentary short following director Jean-Luc Godard on the set of Contempt.

A young woman tries to go to Paris, but her garden and the whole village is flooded with water.

During the making of a video film about a communist printing press, a union member and a leftist activist discuss how to present their information, especially how to caption two specific images: one of a protest in Portugal, the other of a strike in France. One of them decides to write to his son, a manual worker living outside of Paris with his girlfriend, telling the young man about his troubles.

Spring 1970: Godard and Gorin, on the road, visiting colleges, speaking with Andrew Sarris, and explaining, through illustrated notebooks, their newest Dziga Vertov Group project, a film on Palestine.

1976. Jean-Luc Godard et Anne-Marie Miéville adoptent l'outil télévision pour mieux en dénoncer le contenu. Ils réalisent à Grenoble en 1975-1976 une série de six programmes de cent minutes, divisés chacun en deux émissions, pensée en vue d'une diffusion destinée au plus grand nombre. Véritable réflexion sur les moyens de communication, la série dénonce les médias « qui étouffent le vrai » pour proposer en contrepartie une télévision autre, plus proche des réalités sociales et plus critique.

Here and Elsewhere takes its name from the contrasting footage it shows of the fedayeen and of a French family watching television at home. Originally shot by the Dziga Vertov Group as a film on Palestinian freedom fighters, Godard later reworked the material alongside Anne-Marie Miéville.
