Wind from the East
“WARNING TO MILITANTS: WATCH OUT. REFLECT. BE EARLY. BE LATE. THINK! MANUFACTURE. SIMPLIFY. BUILD. WAIT. .
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard, Gérard Martin, Jean-Pierre Gorin
Produced by Anouchka Films, Polifilm
A deliberately provocative, formally experimental manifesto-film that deconstructs cinema itself in service of revolutionary ideology, prioritizing intellectual confrontation over narrative or emotional engagement.
A politically oriented film in which images suggestive of a mock western are accompanied by an attack on all cinematic conventions to date and a debate on the nature and possibility of revolutionary cinema.
