This short film can be considered as notes on the origins of the situationist movement; notes which thus naturally include a reflection on their own language.
Guy Debord, Contre le cinéma
It is both a rather explicitly anti-art-film about the unaccomplished work of this era and an ultimately realistic description of a way of life deprived of coherence and significance.
Guy Debord, Correspondance
It is a portrayal of the absence of “real life.” This slow movement of exposure and negation is what I was trying to embody in Passage.
