Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Pardo was Garrel's cinematographer on 'Le lit de la vierge' and shot this parallel documentary without permission, essentially stealing his own set.
This captures the Zanzibar Group at the precise moment before dissolution — the collective that bankrolled Garrel's early films through inheritance money that ran dry by 1970.
