Quote:
Ce film est une oeuvre supertemporelle. Le support des participations du public est constitué par une image, qui a varié plusieurs fois au cours des diverses projections. Une projection de Maurice Lemaître, lui-même, dans la bande sonore, éclaire le fonctionnement de la séance, pour se terminer sur un défi lancé à la salle.

Quote:
“For a long time now, we have been seeing outrageous attempts at tackling the ‘woman problem’ (and the ‘man problem’)
by pretentious and old-fashioned ‘professors’ or ‘revolu-tionaries,’ related to the Nazis or Stalinists, who have just as
outrage-ously exalted the proletariat, race or nationality, leading to racist and imperialist crimes. Such excessive behavior can
only lead to the exploita-tion and destruction of the very gender concerned.
In any case, the basic components of simple love and simple friendship (and a fortiori of Super-Love and Super-Friendship),
that we have explored in depth (as evoked in my film, What is Love?), are still so poorly understood today by our
contemporaries that even those who claim to be happily experiencing these run the risk of being quickly proven wrong by
Life itself.”

OUR STARS & THE LITTLE GOD

Maurice Lemaître is amongst one of the most important and creative artists of the second half of the 20th century. His cinematic work has led to a fundamental questioning of the relationship between film and spectator, image and sound, art and criticism, cinema and other types of images. His art is characterized by its inventiveness, it’s joy of creating, and a radical and loud critique allowing for Lettrism to flourish as an avant-garde movement.

OUR STARS A chronicle of the fantasies and dream of women in avant-garde contemporary cinema The faces and bodies of new women haunt the paths and alleyways of avant-garde cinema.

THE LITTLE GOD An invitation to travel, one of the main themes of Lemaître, and a genuine manifestation of film Lettrism.
