A playful, poignant love letter to cinema, Nouvelle Vague reimagines the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s Breathless in an exuberant exploration of the youthful rebellion and creative chaos that shaped the French New Wave. Directed by Richard Linklater (The Before Trilogy, Boyhood), starring Zoey Deutch as Jean Seberg, Guillaume Marbeck as Jean-Luc Godard, and Aubry Dullin as Jean-Paul Belmondo.

"It’s a picture that stands strong on the side of art, of history, of working to solve the puzzle of things that maybe at first you don’t fully understand. It’s both a shout of joy and a call to arms. It’s all about the bold, muscular act of caring."
"A labor of love and a product of considerable craft, Richard Linklater’s Nouvelle Vague... is more than just a valentine to the French New Wave; the film is also a stealth showcase for a filmmaker [Godard] rarely heralded (or for that matter, tribuned) for his technical sophistication."
