CENTRE POMPIDOU FILM PROGRAM: HORS PISTES

With the collaboration of Centre Pompidou
Eléonore Weber – Geraldine Gomez
8 November 2008

Les Hommes Sans Gravite is a film within the crumbling walls of a house in ruins, two young men - a lord and a gypsy - discover one another physically and intellectually. Bodies and decors are filmed as echoes of one another, gracefully and languidly. Through a mise en scène between frailty and persistance, Eléonore Weber’s film follows the very movements of desire.
A graduate of political philosophy, Eléonore Weber developed her style first in the theatre, then in film. Also a playwright, she created a piece, later produced at the Théâtre de la Bastille in Paris in 2007, then with a different piece at the Festival d’Avignon. Weber has directed a documentary, also her shorts have been selected for numerous festivals.  Geraldine Gomez is the film programmer at Centre Pompidou.
