Éric Vuillard (France), writer and film director and winner of the Goncourt Prize, will talk with Goel Pinto, host of Kan Tarbut, about Vuillard’s fascinating book, The Order of the Day, which presents a poetic historical examination of the process that led to the Anschluss and World War II. At the end of the conversation, Vuillard will present the audience with one of his most beloved cinematic works, Transit.
The event will be held in French and translated into Hebrew.
While German forces loom outside of Paris, Georg manages to escape to Marseilles. In his possession are documents belonging to a dead author named Weidel, including a manuscript and visa to Mexico. Given that Georg needs a visa to stay in Marseilles, he adopts the dead man’s identity. While waiting for a boat, he meets a mysterious woman desperate to find her husband—the very man he impersonates. Esteemed German director Christian Petzold (Barbara) adapts Anna Seghers’ 1944 novel, while taking a brazen decision to eschew historical restorations of sets and costumes, and instead, position his actors in contemporary Marseilles, thereby fusing past and present in a fascinating and provocative effect.
