The Complete Varda 6 – Nausicaa


Listen Later

On the sixth episode of the Complete Varda, Matt and Travis discuss the most obscure film in Varda’s filmography, the 1970 made-for-television film Nausicaa. Censored at the time and surviving only in a work print sent to Belgium (with all other materials destroyed and the film never finished), Nausicaa is the story of Varda’s search for meaning in her own history and the contemporary political crisis in Greece. We discuss the film’s fragmented and experimental structure, its political history, and the ways in which Varda uses film as a search for meaning and connection.
