In partnership with our friends at Icarus Films, Spectacle is proud to present five newly restored early short film masterpieces from legendary filmmaker Alain Resnais (1922-2014). Resnais would go on to make his mark in feature films, including the Oscar-nominated HIROSHIMA MON AMOUR, but these early-career shorts demonstrate an already keenly developed eye. The films are a remarkable compendium of the stylistic elements found in his features, and represent an important contribution to the distinguished French documentary tradition. All five have been newly restored in 2K by the Centre national du cinéma et de l'image animée (CNC) and made available on home video in North America for the very first time.
