Alphaville: une étrange aventure de Lemmy Caution (Alphaville: A Strange Adventure of Lemmy Caution
The film was shot in 1965 Paris, featuring a new wave/science fiction, neo-noir aesthetic. The film focus' on real locations based in Paris, and avoids using special props or futuristic sets. The film explores modernism within the architectural landscape of the city, to depict a futuristic perspective.
The high contrast, black and white stills are of great inspiration to me and my practice. The intricate landscape created by the city is perfectly captured within this film; Different textures, highlights/shadows and shapes created by the cityscape create a deeply attractive and striking film that resonate with my own practice.

Sans que nous changions d’apparence»
