Alain Resnais

The deep conversation between a Japanese architect and a French actress forms the basis of this celebrated French film, considered one of the vanguard productions of the French New Wave.

In this French drama that won the top award at Venice, a man tries to persuade a woman that they have met before - last year at Marienbad.

A "quasi-theatrical contrivance" (The Guardian), based on Jean Anouilh's 1941 play Eurydice, from French filmmaking veteran (89 years old at the time of making this) Alain Resnais.
