Caryatids (female statues, human columns) sprung up all over Paris as Baudelaire was struck with aphasia.

1975: the "Year of the Woman." A television station gives seven female filmmakers seven minutes to answer the question "What does it mean to be a woman?"

Agnes Varda devotes her attention to curator Ydessa Hendeles' remarkable exhibit "Partners" which opened at the Haus der Kunst in Munich in November of 2002.

For ULYSSE, Agnes Varda grants herself the unusual screen credit of cinecrit, but the exercise in question is actually the titular photograph she took on a beach in 1954.

The final film in the CINEVARDAPHOTO triptych is the oldest, SALUT LES CUBAINS. In 1963, Varda thoughtfully gave order to 1,800 photos that she had recently taken on a trip to Cuba.

A classic documentary from Agnes Varda, DAGUERREOTYPES is a wonderfully intimate portrait of the small shops and shopkeepers on a short stretch of the Rue Daguerre.
