Synopsis: Breathtaking from the start, the film is driven by a dense and beautiful musical theme that keeps repeating itself as contempt takes hold of Camille, the wife of the screenwriter of this ill-fated film who is trying to reconstruct Homer’s Odyssey in southern Italy.
Full of mythological references and dazzling colours, “Contempt” is a psychological dive into an oppressive feeling that stretches out over the course of minutes without really knowing where it comes from, set against summer landscapes with electric blue skies.
This is a true Godard masterpiece, which brought Brigitte Bardot to stardom and revolutionised cinema once again.
