Genre Drama, Documentary

A moving cinematic compilation of three short photography-related documentaries that bookend the eclectic 40-year career of the legendary French auteur Agnès Varda in its exploration of the power and vitality of the photograph.

We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

New York Post by

Sitting through three totally unrelated documentaries in a row -- with all that puzzling (subtitled) dialogue and those long (enigmatic) silences? That's a migraine waiting to happen.

Salon by Andrew O'Hehir

Varda's photography is a pure joy, but rereleasing this film four decades later, absent any commentary on the ironic distance between then and now, is a typically challenging gesture.

The New York Times by Manohla Dargis

The unutterably charming Cinévardaphoto brings together three short works by the filmmaker Agnès Varda, one shot in digital video, the others on celluloid.

The A.V. Club by Noel Murray

Someone as attuned as Varda to the quality of an image should know that a flat, disposable medium like video makes images harder to internalize.
