Part 5: Hot summer nights (ft. Caden Mark Gardner)

  • Summary

  • Once again, the stylistic breadth of Akerman's work comes to the fore via two features linked closely in theme but vastly divergent in approach. First up is Toute une nuit (1982), which chronicles a single smouldering Brussels night via the (mostly) romantic trials and tribulations of several dozen characters; that's followed this month by the more divisive Nuit et jour (1991), a chronicle of bifurcated love in the form of an askew philosophical romantic drama, complete with narration supplied by Akerman herself. Writer and critic Caden Mark Gardner is on hand to help us out on this one!
