Agnès Varda had herself been a widow for 14 years when she turned her attention to the widows of the Atlantic island of Noirmoutier, where she spent a lot of time with her deceased husband, filmmaker Jacques Demy, and their family. She dedicated both an installation and this film to these women, which is based on material shot for the installation. In long conversations, the women give an account of how they live with loss and pain, of grief, loneliness, and mixed feelings. Varda portrays herself as a silent widow. (bik)
