For another kind of narration : Beau travail by Claire Denis

Beau travail by Claire Denis (1999) is a free adaptation of Billy Budd by Hermann Melville. It deals with the story of a warrant officer who can’t stand the arrival of a new legionnaire. In order to direct certain scenes, the director worked with the choreographer Bernardo Montet. Through dance, the composition of the images of Beau Travail invites links with other forms of arts, in particular painting, because Claire Denis work relies on another kind of narration, a plastic one.
