Le Havre : port

Overview

The lens of the camera captures the port of Le Havre during a chaotic way, a trip whose rhythm is given by the process of shooting, frame by frame. The film edited directly into the camera then takes the form of a travelling front, subject to a continuous jump-cut which imposes its frantic pace. Docks, quays, warehouses, cranes, tractors, container architecture and men at work, present and future ruins parade such fleeting impressions.
