IMDB so-called plot :
“A dream-like story of America put together out of silent-film material from the archives, interspersed with many different accounts to be read, some of them in verse.”

““This is a logbook. A film which has been improvised. A poem that is slightly too long and made from other films parts, bits of sentences, pieces of music and sounds from all around. It was written in the language of cinema, without dialogue or commentary. It is both a silent movie and a wordy one as it relates many stories, twenty or so, short, minor and forming what is called History with a capital H when put together. It is about America and, therefore, about us. Pieces of everybody’s lives put together. A child, his father, his mother, the rabbit, the dog, the flowers, your childhood, mine, ours. Native Americans, Christopher Columbus, Apollo, the moon. Each character says I. It is both anybody’s diary and everybody’s autobiography…” This is how des Pallières has described his last opus, whose modus operandi is somewhat reminiscent of the one used in Diane Wellington (2010): some editing of anonymous footage for the purposes of collective stories, with the aim of first developing a rare blend of sensations and emotions before gathering some knowledge. Gertrude Stein – who is depicted in ‘Portrait Incomplet’ – is behind all this. Her presence is mainly noticeable through that particular art of bringing things together into a fragile monument constantly threatening to collapse, dragging us down blissfully.”

(Jean-Pierre Rehm)

extras include three shorts by Arnaud des Pallières & an interview with the director.

The shorts “Diane Wellington” and “I Have a Dream : ébauche” are similar to “American Dust” : speechless, but many titles in French.

The short “Le Narrateur” hardly has any titles, but a voice-over from beginning to end. It is a hommage to Jean Rouch and quotes from an essay The Story-teller by Walter Benjamin.

The interview is a “regular” interview.
