LE BERCEAU DE CRISTAL Directed by Philippe Garrel 18
France, 1976
Duration 72 mins
Colour with Soundtrack by Ash Ra Tempel & Lütz Ülbrich

Dark, dark, dark. Stéphane Delorme, writes of Nico’s face in this movie: “If it does catch the light it’s only to give it back to the darkness.” As background for your fantasy goth or junkie death trip, this is as good as it gets.

An androgynous poet/dreamer sits and writes and meditates on the aching void that is her life. Hieratic and semi-mythical beings show up to haunt her dreams. All accompanied by the dream sounds of Ash Ra Tempel.

LE BLEU DES ORIGINES Directed by Philippe Garrel 18
France, 1979 - 2025 restoration/re-edit
Duration 12 mins
B&W Silent

Nico lends her face and her long dark silhouette to Le Bleu des Origines, a survival, silent black & white film shot with a hand camera, a journey into Philippe Garrel’s intimate family album featuring the two women who counted in his cinematographic life: Nico and Zouzou.
