The full soundtrack to Marguerite Duras' 1975 film India Song, about a French ambassador's wife in 1930s India, is here repurposed with all new cinematography. As we hear all the dialogue of a bygone movie, we travel visually through images of absence and decay, bereft of life. It's the ghost of a film, and a further commentary on colonialism.
Son nom de Venise dans Calcutta désert was directed by Marguerite Duras.
Son nom de Venise dans Calcutta désert runs for 1h 54min, and was released in 1976.
