How to live together in cramped quarters? How to create a microcosm against hostile surroundings? In Barge Life, Florian Deroo tackles these question by looking at a mythical classic of French cinema: Jean Vigo's 1934 film L'Atalante. A work brimming with the energies of surrealism and anarchism, L'Atalante follows a young couple, two shipmates, and a clowder of cats who dwell in the belly of a river barge. Deroo offers a wide-ranging essay on the film, revealing how it invokes a small group that withdraws from the rhythm of modern life to establish a different kind of existence elsewhere. In L'Atalante's most riveting moments, the river barge becomes a vehicle for a powerful fantasy: a flexible collective life, lived in sensuous interdependence. Combining film criticism, philosophy, and biography, this book reconsiders a forerunner of the French New Wave and the early death of its director. Drawing readers into the living spaces of L'Atalante, Deroo explores the allure of retreating into a self-sufficient shelter, along with its intractable problems. 606 $aSeafaring life 615 0$aSeafaring life. 676 $a910.45 700 $aDeroo$b Florian$01834789 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011863203321 996 $aBarge Life$94410403 997 $aUNINA
