Lettrist film


Film was one of the arts that aroused greater interest among the members of the Lettrist group, and also one of the reasons behind their differences. They strove to proclaim the death of film only to bring it back to life through the transgression of language and the medium itself, focusing on the theoretical debate surrounding it. The subversive quality of these films heralds a rebellious spirit that would spread to subsequent movements such as the Situationist International or the riots of May 1968.
