Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Part of Varda's late-period 'autobiographical documentaries' where she turned her camera on immediate surroundings with the same curiosity she once gave strangers.

Insight

The title's deliberate ordinariness—bread, painting, accordion—masks Varda's argument that these humble trades constitute a vanishing Parisian soul.
