Six in Paris (Paris Vu Pas) (region-1 DVD)

In 1965, young producer Barbet Schroeder supplied a 16mm camera, along with color film stock, to six friends (Godard, Douchet, Rouch, Rohmer, Chabrol and Pollet) asking them to each make a short film about a Parisian neighborhood. The resulting films were shot quickly, with low budgets, improvised takes, and live sound. Fresh and original, and featuring contributions by luminaries including Nestor Almendros, Albert Maysles and Jackie Reynal, these six vignettes offer captivating and varied glimpses of the City of Lights.
