Director: Serge Toubiana
France, 52’, 2001, color
French with Turkish subtitles
Serge Toubiana followed Isabelle Huppert and her lifestyle for one year. With her, we reflect on the “album” of her life. The images flow: films of her childhood, the important moments in her career, interspersed with interviews, impressing rehearsals, scenes from films, and ordinary walks, in the center of a crowd that does not recognize her. We are given an insider’s view of a remarkable actress, a discreet woman, who, in this portrait, gives us a glimpse at her emotions, her vocation, and her life.
The wind blows, rubbing against my legs made of layers of metal and wires, swaying the leaves of grass that have shot up from the cracks in the tarmac, and going off to the windows that look like the eyes of dead children in the wrecked buildings that seem to be everywhere as far as the eye can see.
We, by which I mean some of my classmates and I, knew about Paula Rego. I’ll have to admit, I didn’t know where Rego was from or even where in Europe Portugal was. I thought she was English. Let me tell you how I first heard the very un-English sounding name “Paula Rego”
Inspired by the great European masters, from Renaissance to Art Nouveau, Berber’s works exemplify the deep, opaque whites of his journeys through the fairy tale landscapes of Bosnia to the dark, macabre burrows of Srebrenica.
