Trying to Describe Oneself

2005 · 2 hrs 45 mins

Trying to describe oneself is a movie about representation. How it is possible, through film, to describe oneself and describe others. With the camera as mirror and third eye. At first, a collage-like combination of letter-writing, investigation and journey, something between documentary and feature film. Finally, a portrait of Boris Lehman from 1989 to 1995, part II of BABEL.

Director: Boris Lehman

Cast: Mirèse Aerdts, Nathalie André, Evgen Bavčar, Christian Boltanski, John Cage
