Goodbye To Language, winner of the Jury Prize at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival,is writer/director Jean-Luc Godard’s sensorially immersive experience employing verbal and visual poetry via 3D technology to mind-expanding effect. The idea is simple: a married woman and a single man meet. They love, they argue, fists fly, a dog strays between town and country. The seasons pass. The man and woman meet again. The dog finds itself between them. The other is in one, the one is in the other and they are three. The former husband shatters everything. A second film begins: the same as the first, and yet not. From the human race we pass to metaphor. This ends in barking and a baby’s cries. Starring Heloise Godet, Kamel Abdeli and the director’s own dog Roxy, Godard’s latest film is nothing less than a thrilling masterpiece.
