L'œuvre au miroir. Une journée d'Andrei Arsenevitch, Chris Marker. (French)

Chris Marker films the last moments of Andrei Tarkovski's life for the collection Cinéma, de notre temps. Une jounée d'Andrei Arsenevitch is neither a portrait nor a visual study, but rather a work of mirroring and reflection. The film is profoundly amicable. It shows, through a series of poetic figures, the strange bonds between man and his images. They do not look like him, but instead are implicit resemblances, correlating fiction and life, forms of idleness that feed all genuine inspiration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

C'est pour la collection Cinéma, de notre temps, que Chris Marker filme les derniers moments de la vie d'Andrei Tarkovski. Ni portrait ni étude visuelle, Une journée d'Andrei Arsenevitch est plus sûrement une oeuvre en miroir, profondément amicale, qui compose selon une série de figures poétiques l'étrange relation qui relie un homme à ses images. Elles ne lui ressemblent pas, elles font de l'implicite ressemblance qui met en contact la fiction et la vie, la forme d'un désoeuvrement qui nourrit toute inspiration véritable.
