Mr leos caraX tackles the complex artist—a cult figure since his first feature—by plunging the spectator into the poetic and visionary world of his films. By means of exclusive archival materials, interviews with his closest collaborators (such as Denis Lavant), and excerpts from his favourite films, this documentary attempts to put together a few pieces of the Carax puzzle. What emerges is an immersive and dreamlike portrait inspired by his singular artistic vision. Sit back and let yourself drift into the world of this unparalleled visual poet.
