Synopsis:

Pedro Costa offers an amazingly revealing study of the moviemaking process, an artistic manifesto on the wing, and a touching glimpse of an exceptional love story. The couple, who lived and worked together from the nineteen-fifties until Huillet's death, last year, divided the labor clearly, with Huillet doing the editing while Straub paces around and perorates brilliantly until she either refutes him or shuts him up with brusque adoration. Costa's patient, oblique framing gives Straub a stage on which to declaim his conjoined ideals of 'theatrical abstraction' and political revolution, yet also keeps close watch on the practicalities of editorial decision-making, about which the pair are uniquely articulate. Glimpses of Straub lecturing a handful of students in a near-empty screening room suggest the loneliness of the filmmakers' prophetic journey.
