This was the film that introduced cinéma vérité as a strategy for documenting reality. From a simple beginning where the filmmakers set out to ask people in the street ‘Are you happy?’, the film evolves into a complex portrait of a society under strain. Shot as a self-reflexive documentary, Chronicle of a Summer centres on a series of interviews and discussions with different members of the working class in Paris. In their intimate dialogues they discuss both personal issues of work, love and depression as well as France’s war in Algeria, the situation in the Congo and memories of the Holocaust."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"*Chronicle of a Summer* (Kroniek van een zomer) is een samenwerking tussen de invloedrijke filmmaker en antropoloog Jean Rouch en de socioloog Edgar Morin.
