This originated as a TV episode for the French series 'Cinéma, de notre temps' before Costa expanded it into the theatrical 'Where Does Your Hidden Smile Lie?'
Straub and Huillet were notorious for their Marxist, anti-naturalist cinema; Costa's film gently humanizes their militant reputation without defanging it.
