Photographer, filmmaker, documenteur, essayste en cinéma, painter, cinéaste passeuse, and visual artist: these are only some of the most significant attempts to describe Agnès Varda.1 All these labels can overshadow other remarkable characteristics of her cinema and artworks. Furthermore, during meetings and interviews, she described her works encompassing almost three different media: photography, cinema, and visual art. Easily branded as one of the forerunners of the French Nouvelle Vague and a feminist director,2 Varda is an artist who achieves a personal and extraordinary way to express visual and sound emotions, feelings, philosophical issues, and multi-layered perspectives on reality. To properly define her attitude in making movies, Varda coined the term cinécriture: ‘an elaborate and potentially powerful combination of moving images, sound, and music’.3
