François Nemeta

A portrait of French filmmaker Michel Gondry, creator, for three decades, of an imperfect, astonishing, fascinating, damaged and poetic work.

Michel Gondry, a genius of DIY cinema, opens up his sleepless nights to François Nemeta's cameras. Dreamlike, bizarre, and endearing, this is a unique documentary that lives up to its director, a chronic insomniac with the same qualities.

The video depicts three teenagers (two boys and one girl) on a carefree summer road trip, driving a 1970s Chevrolet Monte Carlo. The concept aimed for a universal feeling of melancholy and romantic nostalgia, mixing US and French suburban styles. The video was shot on 16mm film.
