7.0195242mMovie

Paris rendered as a labyrinth of intrigues. Filmed in Parisian parks and on a terrace, LE DIVERTISSEMENT foreshadows the labyrinthine walks that would be a part of Rivette’s cinema, in which the characters look for, follow and find each other like in a romantic scavenger hunt.

DirectorJacques Rivette
