Jean Epstein died 60 years ago in April 1953. Poet, filmmaker, philosopher, he leaves considerable work which has, perhaps, never generated as much excitement and initiatives until today. Yet it remains largely unknown, perhaps because of the diversity of its puzzling work, unclassifiable, very modern, inexhaustible source of inspiration for many filmmakers who succeeded him. He was alternately author of avant-garde, art house films, the "blockbusters" or maritime fiction documentaries.
Discover the newly restored work of Jean Epstein, a unique journey between avant-garde and popular drama. One the most inventive and singular filmmaker of his era, that we can now fully appreciate with one of the greatest and useful box set.
This DVD set includes 14 films, most of which have been preserved and restored by the French Cinematheque.
The set is divided in three parts: Chez Albatros ("At Albatros", the russian studios based in Montreuil during the 20's), Premiere vague ("First Wave", from Epstein's independant production company) and Poemes Bretons ("Breton Poems", the late work and a return to the origins).
