Cleo from 5 to 7 (1962) (French audio - English, French & German subtitles)
This movie shows us Cléo, a French singer, who is afraid of getting the result of of a test from her doctor. She believes that she has cancer and will die of the disease. We follow her for two hours while she cruises through the streets of Paris. At the end, she meets a soldier who is going to the war in Algeria the next day.

Happiness (1965) (French audio - English & German subtitles)
Francois is a young carpenter married with Therese. They have two little children. All goes well, life is beautiful, the sun shines and the birds sing. One day, Francois meets Emilie, they fall in love and become lovers. He still loves his wife and wants to share his new greater happiness with her.

The Creatures (1965) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Agnes Varda's ""Les Creatures"" is a complex and nearly hypnotic study of the way fact is made into fiction. It seems to operate on many levels, but in fact it operates on only one, illustrating how fantasy, reality and style are simultaneously kept suspended in the mind of a creative writer.

Lions, Love and Lies (1969) (English audio - French subtitles)
A blissed-out experiment in anarchy and illusion, featuring Warhol superstar Viva (from LONESOME COWBOYS) and 'Hair' authors James Rado and Jerome Ragni playing ""themselves"" -- three innocents adrift in Hollywood. Freely mixing improvisation with scripted dialogue, and occasional news reports on the shootings of Robert Kennedy and Warhol, which interrupt the film, LIONS LOVE is Agnes Varda's gloriously screwy time capsule of L.A. in its free-love acid-tripping let-it-all-hang-out heyday.

Daguerréotypes (1976) (French audio - English & German subtitles)
Documentary on the small shopkeepers of the rue Daguerre in Paris, where the film-maker lived.

One Sings, the Other Doesn't (1977) (French audio - English & French subtitles)

Pomme and Suzanne meet when Pomme helps Suzanne obtain an abortion after a third pregnancy which she cannot afford. They lose contact but meet again ten years later. Pomme has become an unconventional singer, Suzanne a serious community worker - despite the contrast they remain friends and share in the various dramas of each others' lives, in the process affirming their different female identities.

Mural Murals (1981) (English & French audio - English & French subtitles)
Creative documentary about outdoor wall murals in Los Angeles.

Documenteur: An Emotion Picture (1981) (English & French audio - English & French subtitles)
A young French woman, separated from her lover, tries to find a lodging in L.A. for herself and her son.

Vagabond / Without Roof or Rule (1985) (French audio - English, Spanish & Italian subtitles)
In winter in the south of France, a young woman is found frozen in a ditch. She's unkempt, a vagabond. Through flashbacks and brief interviews, we trace her final weeks as she camps alone or falls in with various men and women, many of whom project their needs onto her or try to give her life direction. She squats in an old house smoking hash with a man, falls for a Tunisian laborer and works beside him pruning grape vines, stays with a couple shepherding goats, meets an agronomist trying to save plane trees, gets tipsy with an old woman, and has an offer to appear in porn films.

Jane B. for Agnes V. (1988) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
A portrait of actress Jane Birkin.

The Young Girls Turn 25 (1993) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
French documentary film directed by Agnès Varda, about Jacques Demy's 1967 film The Young Girls of Rochefort.

The World of Jacques Demy (1995) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
After doing a fiction film about Jacques' childhood (Jacquot de Nantes), my idea was to make a documentary-a relatively objective one-about Jacques Demy, as an adult and a filmmaker. I recorded reminiscences and asked for reactions. I provided some of my personal memories and documents about him, but I often was relayed by his friends, his entourage, the actors and actresses who had worked with him, as well as 'fans' and three demoiselles who never met him but who move naturally through his world.

One Hundred and One Nights (1994) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Monsieur Cinema, a hundred years old, lives alone in a large villa. His memories fade away, so he engages a young woman to tell him stories about all the movies ever made. Also a line of movie stars comes to visit him giving him back the pleasure of life - but amongst them there are also some young students only striving after his money for the realization of their film projects. The two stories - Monsieur Cinema's and the young people's life - are told in parallel until they come together in the end when the old man plays a role in the film made by the students.

The Gleaners & I (2000) (French audio - English, German & French subtitles)
French documentary by Agnès Varda that features various kinds of gleaning.

The Beaches of Agnès (2008) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Agnès Varda explores her memories, mostly chronologically, with photographs, film clips, interviews, reenactments, and droll, playful contemporary scenes of her narrating her story.

Agnès Varda Here and There (2011) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Both a series on modern art and Agnès Varda's travel diary, the five-episode series Agnès de ci de là Varda will delight art lovers and the French filmmaker's admirers alike. In what could be called a filmed diary, Varda takes us on a trip around the world, turning her inquisitive camera on the artists she meets as well as their work, adding her own commentary and impressions. Working with these fragments of art and life, she has created a production in her own image: funny, light, poetic. These chronicles are brimming with delicious moments, from Varda's potato costume to Manoel de Oliveira's 'Chaplinesque' dance, not to mention a memorable visit to Chris Marker's studio.

La Pointe Courte (1955) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
A young man (Philippe Noiret) arrives at a train station to see his wife. After four years of marriage the couple finds difficulty in their marriage as the husband has left there without her. The couple discuss their lives without settling on their current romantic situation. The man takes his wife back to a train without any clear statement on the couple's relationship. Meanwhile, A government official arrives to see if local fishermen in the village are fishing without permits. In the village a child has died and a fisherman is jailed for fishing without a license while a young man has arranged a marriage between him and his sixteen year old girlfriend.

Cleo from 5 to 7 (1962) (French audio - English, French & German subtitles)
An hour and a half (despite the title) of the life of a singer who learns she is merely being put on display. She visits a fortune teller who predicts stomach cancer (although after she has left), which is what she is afraid of what she might be dying. During this period, she meets with her boyfriend in a room full of cats and swings, then her composers in the same place. After deciding to work against the capriciousness with which the composers pigeonhole her, she puts on a black dress, takes off her wig, and tries to see things from a different perspective, learning much from her friend Dorothée, who poses nude for sculptors, and a passing soldier named Antoine.

Happiness (1965) (French audio - English & German subtitles)
A happily-married carpenter inadvertently falls in love with a young telephone company employee. As he explores his feelings in the joy of that relationship, he discovers that far from feeling alienated from his wife and child, the joy of his new relationship actually intensifies his attachment to them as well. He is at a loss how to explain this to his wife. When Thomas shares the truth about his relationships with his wife she appears to accept his statement that he has enough love for both her and his mistress, but then she commits suicide. Thomas' relationship with his mistress survives.

The Creatures (1965) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Sometimes during the course of Agnes Varda's Les Creatures, the hero and villain of the piece sit down beside a series of television screens and begin to play an odd sort of futuristic chess. The game's pieces represent characters in the village of the film. When two of them meet on the chess board, they meet in real life and are observed on the television screens. The villain has at his disposal a trap which, when it hovers over any one of the characters, permits him to play havoc with that character's emotions.

Lions, Love and Lies (1969) (English audio - French subtitles)
The pressures here in Hollywood are so great, from all the dead people, opines Warhol superstar Viva in Varda's experimental feature, shot in Los Angeles in 1968. External pressures on our heroine would at first seem to be few. Drifting naked in the pool attended by swains Jim Rado and Jerry Ragni (the writer-singers of Hair), she has little more to do than recite pop re?. But the atmosphere of hippie bliss is disrupted when the trio's houseguest, filmmaker Shirley Clarke, attempts suicide (directed to 'swallow' a handful of pills, the sensible Clarke complains while the cameras roll, 'this whole thing, it's not my style!'); Bobby Kennedy gets killed on TV; and news of the shooting of Andy Warhol arrives by telephone. What's a superstar to do? Bracketed by performances of Michael McClure's The Beard, with cameos by Eddie Constantine and Peter Bogdanovich, among others, Lions Love is a deliberately decadent riff on fantasy, immaturity, and violence: American culture, 1968.

Daguerréotypes (1976) (French audio - English & German subtitles)
Documentary about the lives of the inhabitants of a street in an old part of Paris, an area which teams with small shops and businesses. The people and shopkeepers of 70 to 90 Rue de Daguerre, Paris, are the silent majority, who do not want to hear about politics, who don't have the time, who don't want to change a thing.

One Sings, the Other Doesn't (1977) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
In this story of friendship and reproductive rights, 14 years in the relationship between two very dissimilar women are chronicled. Pauline (Valerie Mairesse) is a middle-class city girl, at odds with her very conventional family. Suzanne (Therese Liotard) is several years older, a country girl with two illegitimate children and another (whom she cannot support) on the way. Pauline loans Suzanne money for an (illegal) abortion. At this point, the two separate and communicate mainly through postcards. Some years later, they meet at an abortion rally, and they have many adventures and stories to share with one another.

Mural Murals (1981) (English & French audio - English & French subtitles)
Venturing from Venice Beach to Watts, Varda looks at the murals of Los Angeles as backdrop to and mirror of the city's many cultures. She casts a curious eye on graffiti and photorealism, roller disco and gang violence, evangelical Christians, Hare Krishnas, artists, angels, and ordinary Angelenos. Along the meandering way, we meet the creators of some of California's most memorable wall art, including Judy Baca, mastermind of the Great Wall of Los Angeles project along the L.A. River; Arno Jordan, painter of the ironically bucolic scenes adorning the Farmer John meatpacking plant; and Kent Twitchell, who offers a theological rationale for a depiction of the Holy Trinity starring actors from Lassie, The Lone Ranger, and Father Knows Best. The film is very Varda and very L.A.: vibrating with color and surprising juxtapositions, rich in illusion and allusion. And like the movies, the murals are both monumental and ephemeral, destined to fade, many of them now disappeared.

Documenteur: An Emotion Picture (1981) (English & French audio - English & French subtitles)
A French woman and her son live in Los Angeles. The woman is lonely as her man has left her. Voice-over narration expresses the woman's thoughts and feelings and reveal her life as pointless, but there is some hope in her loving relationship with her son.

Vagabond / Without Roof or Rule (1985) (French audio - English, Spanish & Italian subtitles)
Vagabond, directed by Agnes Varda is the dark disturbing story of a female drifter named Mona (Sandrine Bonnaire). The film opens as Mona's frozen body is found in a drainage ditch and proceeds to tell her story in a series of flashbacks and semi-documentary style "interviews" with the people who have known Mona during the last few weeks of her life. Mona is a distant, independent and not-very-likeable woman who goes from place to place, living where she can and with anyone who will take her in. Mona's true nature remains a puzzle, both to those who thought they knew her, and to the audience. As the movie progresses it becomes clear that no one knew the true Mona and she, because of her aloofness and essential coldness, provided a canvas for those she met to write upon. Who Mona really was, and what she thought remains ambiguous. Sandrine Bonnaire is excellent as Mona, making an unappealing and cold character interesting and intriguing. Director Agnes Varda began her career as a still photographer. This beginning is evident in her elegant framing of the film. She has an instinctive awareness of and a photographer's eye for visual detail which makes the film cold, bleak, and aridly beautiful. Internationally acclaimed, Vagabond is Varda's most successful film.

Jane B. for Agnes V. (1988) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Jane B. is London-born actress and recording star Jane Birkin. Agnes V. is Belgian filmmaker and 'grandmother of the New Wave' Agnes Varda. Jane B. Par Agnes V is a cinematic recounting of Birkin's career, from her breakthrough appearance as one of the nude models in Blow-Up to her pinnacle as star of such films as La Femme de Ma Vie (1986). It is also the story of Birkin and Varda's close relationship, made stronger by their mutual admiration and their lifelong fascination with feminist themes. Viewers who prefer straightforward, objective documentaries rather than radicalized film techniques, may not appreciate Jane B. par Agnes V.

Kung-fu master! (1988) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Mary-Jane asks, 'Do all women fall in love with a boy, or just those without sons?' She's divorced with two daughters, Lucy and Loulou. Lucy has a party where Mary-Jane notices Julien, 14, small and brassy, but she sees a sensitive side. She contrives to spend time with him and lets him know she's available to him. He's on the cusp between child and man, alternating between playing a video game, Kung Fu Master, where he tries to rescue Sylvie, and joining friends in bluff talk about sexual exploits. As Lucy realizes what is happening, she's repulsed, but Mary-Jane, encouraged by her own mother, carries on. Is it love or jealousy of lost youth? Is there any way this can end well?

Jacquot de Nantes (1991) (French audio - English, Spanish & French subtitles)
Jacquot Demy is a little boy at the end of the thirties. His father owns a garage and his mother is a hairdresser. The whole family lives happily and likes to sing and to go to the movies. Jacquot is fascinated by every kind of show (theatre, cinema, puppets). He buys a camera to shoot his first amateur film... An evocation of French cineast Jacques Demy's childhood and vocation for the cinema and the musicals.

The Young Girls Turn 25 (1993) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
In the city of Rochefort, in 1966, Jacques Demy made his famous musical The Young Girls of Rochefort with the delightful Deneuve-Dorléac sisters. In 1992, the city organized a celebration, 25 years after the opening of the film. Agnès Varda has made a colorful documentary by mixing-with a special touch of melancholy-the images of the 1966 summer shooting with what she shot during the summer of 1992: two feasts of cinema! She met the people of Rochefort who vividly remember that time. She spoke with Catherine Deneuve, Jacques Perrin, and with some other friends of the film. As for the former extras, they have grown up, as the lindens did around the Colbert square.

The World of Jacques Demy (1995) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
Noted French filmmaker Demy's wife Agnes Varda helmed this intensely personal tribute to her late husband. It is her third such tribute and is the only one to look deeply into Demy's vision as a director and his filmmaking techniques. To do so, she uses perfectly preserved film clips from each of the director's works and interviews with those who knew and loved him. Those interviewed include actress Catherine Deneuve, actress Anouk Aimee, actor Michel Piccoli, composer Michel Legrand, his own children and others, including female fans whose lives where influenced by his work. Also included are intimate home movies of him during a visit by Francois Truffaut and the late Jim Morrison.

One Hundred and One Nights (1994) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
This homage to the cinema by venerated movie-maker Agnes Varda, often dubbed the "grandmother" of the French New Wave, features an all-star international cast. The story is based upon the memories and insights of the 100-year old Mr. Simon Cinema. He lives in a magnificent house filled with movie memorabilia. To help him remember the important details of his career he hires Camille, a film student to write down his remembrances and experiences which have involved all areas of movie-making. Camille comes once a day for 101 days. Film clips, photographs and actual visitors highlight his stories. As he continues to spin his yarns, the imagery in the film smoothly morph into other images. Camille, when not recording, is involved in other exploits including a romance with a production assistant, Mica who aspires to becoming a director. She also begins plotting a way to get to Mr. Cinema's fortune by having a friend pose as his long lost heir. Many other characters are peripherally involved including Death, an Italian seeking the rights to his film catalogue, and a memory specialist.

The Gleaners & I (2000) (French audio - English, German & French subtitles)
An intimate, picaresque inquiry into French life as lived by the country's poor and its provident, as well as by the film's own director, Agnes Varda. The aesthetic, political and moral point of departure for Varda are gleaners, those individuals who pick at already-reaped fields for the odd potato, the leftover turnip.

The Beaches of Agnès (2008) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
At nearly 80, Agnès Varda explores her memory - growing up in Belgium, living in Sète, Paris, and Noirmoutier, discovering photography, making a film, being part of the New Wave, raising children with Jacques Demy, losing him, and growing old. She explores her memory using photographs, film clips, home movies, contemporary interviews, and set pieces she designs to capture a feeling, a time, or a frame. Shining through each scene are her impish charm, inventiveness, and natural empathy. How do people grow old, how does loss stay with them, can they remain creative, and what do they remember? Memory, she says, is like a swarm of confused flies. She envisions hers for us.

Agnès Varda Here and There (2011) (French audio - English & French subtitles)
This documentary series episodes took place in Paris, Berlin, Sete (the location of her first feature), Nantes and Portugal. Notably we get to rummage around in Chris Marker's atelier, with the man himself (unseen of course) sitting amongst a Gordian knot of cables downloading Al Jazeera TV, updating his virtual reality site, showing off his collection of Time magazines, with the infamous Bin Laden crossed out in red cover with matching versions of Hitler and Japan post Hiroshima. Here the hunter gets captured by the game when Agnes Varda becomes Audio Visual and romps around in Marker's computer game staring at a virtual sea. On to Nantes for a moving celebration of Jacques Demy by family members and Anouk Aimee strolling through Lolaville. Finally to the strains of Amalia Rodriguez we look up Manuel De Oliveira who at 102 seems sprightlier than many half his age. Again quarry turns predator when Manuel pinches Varda's camera and turns it on her while she does a little dance. Due to a lack of expertise with focus pulling Manny manages to create a fetching little pointillist number on Agnes with the raindrops on the lens pin sharp.. We are left with the clip from Angelique of the dead girl's smile and of course, as in her dance, Varda neatly sidesteps back to Marker and La Jetee in a blink of an eye. After a trip to Berlin, Agnes lingers in the beautiful chaos of the workshop by Chris Marker. She walks in Second Life where the director who 'pushes the discretion to secrecy' leads a parallel life. Then she takes the train to Nantes where we "celebrated" the twentieth anniversary of the death of Jacques Demy and fifty years of Lola: flash-mob, moving planes of the face of Anouk Aimee Pommeraye, detour construction sites where naval snort now gigantic marine mechanical and relaxing holiday, the Museum of Fine Arts. In Lieu Unique, which exhibits a current Pierrick Sorin against the grain on a 33-turns or spewing stubbornly on a screen, Agnes Varda pushes to its limits this artist who admits to "make love mariole, but a little depressed mariole". The filmmaker then went to Portugal, where Manuel de Oliveira snatched her camera and improvises a dance, before exploring one of his favorite obsessions: what has happened before and after a photo?
