In one of Chantal Akerman’s most penetrating character studies, an accomplished filmmaker makes her way through a series of Western European cities to promote her newest release... passing through a succession of exquisitely shot brief encounters, meeting a succession of equally lost souls, which gradually reveal her emotional and physical detachment from the world.

This semi-autobiographical film was a major step forward for the itinerant Akerman, mirroring her own, often turbulent, wanderings.

This May, QFT celebrates one of cinema's mavericks with a season dedicated to filmmaker Chantal Akerman, the first female director to take the number one spot on Sight & Sound's Greatest Films of All Time poll.
