Peines perdues
28m

“Also, in cinema, as images move at 24 frames per second, pay attention to the next one.” This sentence, placed at the beginning of Peines perdues, clearly indicates that cinema is a mechanical fabrication, and that movement is an illusion. Through fragments and the integration of film extracts, visual artworks and archival material, Claude Beaugrand addresses moments in history, its excesses and injustices, composing, to give meaning and emotional force to his images, a sound fabric that is a narrative in itself.
