Still from Too Early Too Late
1982

The offscreen reading of a letter from Friedrich Engels describing the misery of the countryside on the eve of the French Revolution is juxtaposed with an excerpt from Mahmoud Hussein's Class Conflict in Egypt, 1945-1970. There are no actors in the film but, says Danièle Huillet, 'there are landscapes and they are treated exactly as if they were people'.
