Program Note
Shall we call it an ‘Apocalyptic version’ of [Jules et Jim], which reminds us of the visual and auditory quality of silent films? The general tone of the film is actually quite contrasting. As opposed to how Truffaut’s masterpiece focuses its weight in the unregulated love triangle of the main characters, the film maintains the silent tone as it pours effort into capturing and expressing the space and environment surrounding the characters. Eldoie and Elias are living in peace after the end of the world. One day, a mysterious man Gabriel appears and creates a rift between them. It almost seems to turn into a stimulating drama about a love triangle, but the film consistently maintains its minimalism and revivalism ? especially in the expression of the relationship between the three characters, as well as other individuals. The characters seldom speak to each other. Their thoughts are portrayed, not through words, but through a minimum amount of gestures and expressions. At times up close and at times from afar, the camera fixes on the characters, the space they occupy, or even empty space. The aesthetic sense, lighting, and sound effects all contribute to the minimalism and revivalism.
