Title from container.
La jetée originally produced in 1962; Sans soleil, in 1983.
Special features: new, restored high-definition digital transfers, approved by director Chris Marker; new video interviews with filmmaker Jean-Pierre Gorin; Chris on Chris, a video piece on Marker by filmmaker and critic Chris Darke; two excerpts from the French TV series "Court-circuit (le magazine)" directed by Luc Lagier.
"La jetée" was the inspiration for Terry Gilliam's film "Twelve Monkeys" and is almost entirely narrated using black and white stills. After Paris is destroyed in a third world war, the survivors are forced to retreat underground where scientists conduct strange time-travel experiments in an effort to escape to a better past or future. In "Sans soleil", an unknown woman reads the writings of a cameraman who travels the world to produce a study of "the dreams of the human race"; he is particularly attracted to the two extremes of Japan and Africa, and discusses the images that he creates with the woman.
DVD, region 1, widescreen (1.66:1) presentation; Dolby Digital mono., NTSC.
