Introduction (Caroline Champetier)

Cinematographer Caroline Champetier's rigor, precision, and mastery of light and composition have made her a creative partner for four generations of eminent filmmakers, including Leos Carax, Jacques Rivette, Chantal Akerman, Nobuhiro Suwa, Arnaud Desplechin, Xavier Beauvois, Claude Lanzmann, Philippe Garrel, André Téchiné, and above all Jean-Luc Godard. Rooms 2 and 3 develop out of our portrait film, exploring her approach to the language of cinematic color (Room 2) and different forms of stillness and motion (Room 3). Sections include WORKING WITH GODARD, LESSONS OF DARKNESS, SILENT LIGHT, FILMING HISTORY, OF GODS AND MEN, and CARAX AND DIGITAL CINEMATOGRAPHY. Photograph by Gus Aronson (Paris, June 2023).
