Sans soleil
1983
Synopsis
An unnamed woman narrates the letters and philosophical reflections of an invisible world traveler accompanied by footage of Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Iceland, Paris, San Francisco and, most significantly, Tokyo—a city whose people, streets, malls and temples inspire the traveler’s observations.
Editorial

Today, it is considered a masterpiece, a film that breaks free of the documentary form and into a world of its own.
