| Overview: | Doubtless we live in a period of silence in history. And we try to find a response in ourselves because it's difficult to live in this silence. When there is no historical movement, it's normal to be tempted to look around oneself, during this groove cut into the continuity of history. For my generation who have lived through that continuity, there is a sadness, a disenchantment, which one cannot but express.
In VOYAGE TO CYTHERA, the voyage is really a reworking of the myth of the Return of Odysseus according to a myth which preceded Homer. Similar to Dante's version, there is a pre-Homeric version that Odysseus set sail again after reaching Ithaca. So the film becomes more a leaving than a homecoming. I have a soft spot for the ancient writing. There really is nothing new. We are all just revising and reconsidering ideas that the ancient first treated.
