03/22 - Hiroshima Mon Amour (1959)
A French actress filming an anti-war film in Hiroshima has an affair with a married Japanese architect as they share their differing perspectives on war.

Director: Alain Resnais
Writer: Marguerite Duras
Stars: Emmanuelle Riva, Eiji Okada, Stella Dassas

16mm/90min/B&W/French Language/English Subtitles

It is the documentation of an intensely personal conversation between a French-Japanese couple about memory and forgetfulness. It was a major catalyst for the Nouvelle Vague (French New Wave), making highly innovative use of miniature flashbacks to create a uniquely nonlinear storyline.
