About This Movie

So, Paris is a Moveable Feast - A Film in 18 Waves is quite the piece. It’s a documentary that transports you through the streets of Paris, capturing this raw, gritty vibe. Sylvain George takes us along with an unaccompanied foreign minor, and the way he intertwines the grandeur of the city’s monuments in black-and-white is striking. You get a real sense of the lives that bustle around these historical backdrops. The pacing feels almost dreamlike, shifting between the monumental and the mundane. It’s not just about the sights, but also the stories – the everyday lives of people against a backdrop of history. There’s a certain poetry in the way it all unfolds. Definitely a film that lingers in the mind.
