About the Event
VAGABOND, directed by Agnes Varda (1985)
A young drifter found frozen to death in a ditch opens into a splintered portrait of an enigmatic woman. Agnès Varda pieces her story together through flashbacks told by those who encountered her (played by a largely nonprofessional cast). Although there are many people who can step forward and say they spoke with the young woman, sheltered her, gave her food and drink, shared cigarettes and even sex with her, there is no one to say that they knew her. Without parable, without metaphor, Varda’s sparse, poetic images present a soul-shaking question - although many have shared our time, how many have truly known us?
