In connection with the exhibition The film photonovel: a forgotten type of cinema in print, curated by Jan Baetens, the professor and historian join us for a lecture that will look at the history and specifics of the film photonovel, a long-forgotten format that became extremely popular in Europe in the 1955-1965 decade. The lecture will be accompanied by a screening of La jetée, by filmmaker, poet, novelist and artist Chris Marker. Considered one of the most influential science fiction films, the work challenges the concept of cinema as a moving image. Using the narrative resource of photomontage (around 200 photographs in 26 minutes), La jetée follows a man in a post-apocalyptic setting who is forced to travel back in time to find a solution to the fate of humanity.
