Course Description

Overview

Delve into the creative mind of legendary French New Wave and documentary director Agnès Varda in this 26-minute TEDxVeniceBeach talk. At 89 years old, Varda reflects on three fundamental concepts that have shaped her seven-decade filmmaking career: inspiration, creation, and sharing. Explore the concept of "the emergency of inspiration" and the urgent drive artists feel when struck by an idea. Gain insights into the sparks behind Varda's iconic films, including CLEO FROM 5 TO 7, VAGABOND, THE BEACHES OF AGNES, THE WORLD OF JACQUES DEMY, THE GLEANERS AND I, and FACES, PLACES. Discover the creative process of a filmmaker who received both an Oscar nomination and an honorary career Oscar in the same year, and learn how inspiration and good mood have fueled her enduring cinematic legacy.
