NOUVELLE VAGUE is Richard Linklater’s love letter to the magic of French New Wave cinema, as he reimagines the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s Breathless (1960), the film that established Godard’s signature place in the history of cinema.The film is about a young and impulsive criminal in Paris and his American girlfriend.
In Nouvelle Vague we are transported back to the streets of 1959 Paris for a delightful and vibrant recreation of one of cinema's most groundbreaking productions.
It is an ode to the transformative power of cinema.
