Chris Marker Read Bio Collapse
Chris Marker (1921-2012) was a writer, photographer, filmmaker, multi-media artist, and world traveller, whose cinematic essays have been challenging audiences for more than half a century with their complex queries about time, memory, and the nature of truth. A self-effacing figure who was rarely interviewed and even more rarely photographed (when asked for a picture of himself, he usually offered a photograph of a cat instead), Marker is considered by many critics as one of the most important directors in the world. His prolific output as a filmmaker included such landmarks as Lettre de Sibérie (1957), La Jetée (1962), Le Joli Mai (1963), Sans Soliel (1983) and Level Five (1997). ((New Wave Film))
