Charting her extraordinary life with verve and humour, Agnès is the guide to her own life, taking a reflective journey through her Belgian childhood, her career in photography, and her switch to the moving image in the 1950s. Credited as the only female filmmaker in the French New Wave, Agnès is a legend, and this kaleidoscopic look at her career and personal life is a fascinating and illuminating joy.
