Overview: With the help of his friends and wife, Magritte films sketches without any narrative coherence, a series of filmed installations (sometimes involving the painter's favorite iconography) that revel in the burlesque spontaneity of the shoot. “'Cinema for intellectuals' never amuses me and I expect nothing from cinema other than amusement, futile if you will, but which few films manage to arouse” --René Magritte
Overview: The surrealist painter René Magritte questions the objective reality and emphasizes the arbitrariness of the relationship between an object, its image and its name: the evocation of mystery consists of images of familiar things gathered or transformed in such a way that they no longer conform to our ideas, whether naive or wise.
