Le Gai Savoir
(Jean-Luc Godard, France, 1969, 35mm, 95 min)
Commissioned by (but never aired on) French television, Savoir is the beginning of Godard's farewell to narrative and first attempt at his zero degree approach.
Le Gai Savoir begins to integrate the director's formal concerns with his political ones, building a case for the historical necessity of revolution. This film essay is an account of young militants who meet in a darkened TV studio to discuss, and ultimately deconstruct, the oppressive connection between language and capitalism.
