Synopsis
Godard returns to Sarajevo with a question that has long haunted him: what role can artists and intellectuals play when they intervene in politics and history? With a threepart structure borrowed from Dante, Godard first depicts war (‘Hell’) with a montage of found footage, before taking us to post-war Sarajevo (‘Purgatory’) and a cultural conference presided over by Godard himself and other reallife poets and thinkers, where we are introduced to the film's young protagonists Judith and Olga – a journalist and a film student – who choose opposite paths towards changing society. A coda (‘Paradise’) ironically considers the aftermath of martyrdom.
