Jane B. by Agnès V. (1988)

Made at a moment when Jane Birkin was widely regarded as having passed her youthful peak, Jane B. par Agnès V. deliberately dismantles the idea of a single anatomical or cultural ‘prime’.

Staging Birkin between roles, costumes, fantasies, and conversations, and often drifting between colourfully elaborate scenes and intimate exchanges, Varda conjures a new ideal grounded in self-ownership, play, and time.
