Storyline:

The Beaches of Agnes 2008 At nearly 80, Agnes Varda explores her memory growing up in Belgium, living in Sete, Paris, and Noirmoutier, discovering photography, making a film, being part of the New Wave, raising children with Jacques Demy, losing him, and growing old She explores her memory using photographs, film clips, home movies, contemporary interviews, and set pieces she designs to capture a feeling, a time, or a frame Shining through each scene are her impish charm, inventiveness, and natural empathy How do people grow old, how does loss stay with them, can they remain creative, and what do they remember Memory, she says, is like a swarm of confused flies She envisions hers for us
