Synopsis

At nearly 80, Agnès Varda explores her memory - growing up in Belgium, living in Sète, Paris, and Noirmoutier, discovering photography, making a film, being part of the New Wave, raising children with Jacques Demy, losing him, and growing old. She explores her memory using photographs, film clips, home movies, contemporary interviews, and set pieces she designs to capture a feeling, a time, or a frame. Shining through each scene are her impish charm, inventiveness, and natural empathy. How do people grow old, how does loss stay with them, can they remain creative, and what do they remember? Memory, she says, is like a swarm of confused flies. She envisions hers for us.

On the other hand, some may find the soundtrack of Les plages d'Agnès to be overly sentimental and manipulative. While the music effectively conveys the emotional weight of Varda's memories, it can at times feel heavy-handed and melodramatic. This may detract from the authenticity of the storytelling, making it seem more staged than genuine.
