End of a Summer Day

1972, English. Directed by Robert Fortier.

A hymn to love and life, this film without commentary establishes through images a striking parallel between the serenity that times of peace bring to men and the anguish caused by the disasters and horrors of war. Archival footage, in black and white, was used to illustrate the moments of combat while an extremely agile camera captured in color the rural setting in which a young couple of lovers frolic. Hymne à l'amour et à la vie, ce film sans commentaire établit par l'image un saisissant parallèle entre la sérénité qu'apportent aux hommes les temps de paix et l'angoisse qu'engendrent les désastres et les horreurs de la guerre. Des métrages d'archives, en noir et blanc, ont été utilisés pour illustrer les moments de combat tandis qu'une caméra extrêmement agile a capté en couleurs le décor champêtre dans lequel s'ébat un jeune couple d'amoureux.
