Pierre Clémenti, Filmmaker

Choses Vues

Cult actor from the 60s who aroused admiration by his choices and his intense acting, Pierre Clémenti left behind him a remarkable film work. As a genuine artist, rejecting both mainstream career and stardom that he could have entered owing to his filmstar looks, he preferred to get very much involved in working with demanding filmmakers like Buñuel, Bertolucci, Pasolini and Garrel as well as directing outstanding fringe films. The 2-disc DVD presents for the first time these very personal diary films, images of the 60s and 70s underground culture and sounds of psychedelic rock music.
