Jacques’ Rampage or When Do We Lose Our Self-confidence?
2019 · 9m · Animation
Free composition movie is that defines the real substance of day to day life with sensation achieved by connecting scenes that are independent from one another. The essence of the work is in the relationship between these scenes; how the connection is achieved among the unintelligible features of the characters due to an influence that is above them – all this in a monochrome world based on Jacques Tati’s work.

La Ballerine
1944 · ★ 3.7
When Agnès Varda was preparing the film Jacquot de Nantes in 1990, she was able to shoot in the small apartment where Jacques was raised. While emptying the attic, Agnès found pieces of 9.5 mm film, dry and folded, almost broken and two small cardboard figures. The film was impossible to project and the film had to be remade. Showing the pieces of film to Jacques he immediately identified La Ballerine. A student from the Fine Arts School of Nantes therefore redrew each shot, frame by frame, on blank 16 mm film.
