Tuesday 14th February, oPeRaTiNg tHeAtRe presents "Le Fond de l'air est rouge (A Grin Without a Cat)", dir. Chris Marker, 1977, 240 min. English subtitles.
A GRIN WITHOUT A CAT is Chris Marker’s truly epic film-essay on the worldwide political wars of the 60's and 70's: Vietnam, Bolivia, May '68, Prague, Chile, and the fate of the New Left. A complex montage of protest, defiance, mourning, solidarity, procession, and riot control provides, not only distilled visual summary of the inevitable fate of the New Left, but also a global context to the images of struggle.
Opens at: 19:00
Dinner at 19:30
Film at 20:30
Free entrance, donations welcome.

Chris marker himself about grin without a cat:
"Some think the third World War will be set off by a nuclear missile. For me, that's the way it will end. In the meantime, the figures of an intricate game are developing, a game whose de-coding will give historians of the future - if they are still around - a very hard time.
A weird game. Its rules change as the match evolves. To start with, the super powers' rivalry transforms itself not only into a Holy Alliance of the Rich against the Poor, but also into a selective co-elimination of Revolutionary Vanguards, wherever bombs would endanger sources of raw materials. As well as into the manipulation of these vanguards to pursue goals that are not their own. During the last ten years, some groups of forces (often more instinctive than organized) have been trying to play the game themselves - even if they knocked over the pieces. Wherever they tried, they failed. Nevertheless, it's been their being that has the most profoundly transformed politics in our time. This film intends to show some of the steps of this transformation." - Chris Marker
I think this quote is from the recoding/recuting of the film in 1982, that is another 20 years ago...
