Product Description
In 1975, director Nicolas Philibert (Etre et Avoir) was a young assistant to film-maker René Allio. Together, they made 'Moi, Pierre Rivière, ayant égorgé ma mère, ma soeur et mon frère' ('I, Pierre Rivière, having cut the throat of my mother, my sister and my brother ) a little-seen film based on the disturbing true story of a peasant who murdered his family in 1835. All the main parts in 'I, Pierre Rivière' were played by non-professional actors from Normandy. Here, thirty years after the film's release, Philibert takes his camera back to the region to learn about the lives of its stars during the intervening years. Weaving through time - between 1975, the present time, and the nineteenth century - Philibert creates yet another captivating documentary.
Synopsis
In 1975, acclaimed French filmmaker Nicolas Philibert (ETRE ET AVOIR) worked as an assistant alongside Rene Allio as he made a film--MOI, PIERRE RIVIERE, AYANT EGORGE MA MERE, MA SOEUR ET MON FRERE—depicting the true story of a 19th Century peasant who murdered his family. Here Philibert goes back to Normandy—some 30 years later—to catch up with the non-professional cast, weaving between time to create a piece of work just as captivating as that made by his mentor.
