“Fever Dreams: The Cinema of Claire Denis” Seminar

Activity: Conference/talk/lecture/symposium/speech/workshop, etcEvent organized by non-HKBU units

Description

Alliance Française de Hong Kong and M+ Cinema (West Kowloon Cultural District) copresented ‘Fever Dreams: The Cinema of Claire Denis' with M+, the first global museum of contemporary visual culture in Asia, as part of M+ Cinema’s Autumn 2022 screening programme. This focus programme celebrates the illustrious career of French filmmaker Claire Denis. In the past thirty years and through her rich body of work, Denis’s films have delved into the mystifying desires of the human heart and the ubiquitous impact of colonialism. Her elliptical storytelling and mood-inducing images evoke our innermost primal instincts and reveal marks left on the human psyche by sociocultural developments. I have been invited by the M+ Curator of Hong Kong Film and Media Mr. Li Cheuk-to to talk about the career and works of Claire Denis as well as her reception in France and abroad.
