Journey of a “Cine-Son”

00:00:04 Serge Daney, take one.

00:00:28 <i>the times narrate themselves through you.</i>

00:00:51 <i>and the way you looked at them, as a child and a teenager?</i>

00:01:09 and I realized that it was the image that overlooked my childhood

00:01:30 I very quickly had an extraordinary propensity to memorize names

00:01:50 that was the first image that gazed at my childhood.

00:02:15 especially my mother, who would say:

00:02:32 And I went to see the films that adults went to see.

00:02:55 So the formative, in terms of images

00:03:15 I think itís very important, Iím glad I thought about it recently

00:03:44 where I live now, so really a Paris kid

00:04:08 my relationship to what we call images

00:04:28 And for me no map was ever complete enough

00:04:48 When you take the plane for the first time

00:05:05 So the far-away countries, the weird and complicated names

00:05:33 <i>Itís a travel that continues?</i>

00:05:54 very fashionable during the 70s.

00:06:12 which in fact was Yalta but I didnít realize-

00:06:32 whether theyíre drunk on their Croatian-ness leaves me absolutely cold.

00:06:54 as a kid, to be for the independence of Algeria.

00:07:13 <i>I.e. to find the world you have to run away from home.</i>

00:07:31 much more care-free feeling

00:07:51 Itís excessive, but true.

00:08:14 they know they belong to another version of the world, or of humanity.
