Alternate Title: Les plages d'Agnès

Directed by: Agnès Varda

year: 2008 112 minutes

Winner of "Best Documentary" ("meilleur film documentaire") at the 2009 César Awards.

A reflection on art, life and the movies, THE BEACHES OF AGNES is a magnificent film from the great Agnes Varda, director of CLEO FROM 5 TO 7, a richly cinematic self portrait that touches on everything from the feminist movement and the Black Panthers to the films of husband Jacques Demy (THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG) and the birth of the French New Wave.
