Release: Jun. 2nd, 1976
Runtime: 1 hour, 54 minutes
The full soundtrack to Marguerite Duras' 1975 film India Song, about a French ambassador's wife in 1930s India, is here repurposed with all new cinematography. As we hear all the dialogue of a bygone movie, we travel visually through images of absence and decay, bereft of life. It's the ghost of a film, and a further commentary on colonialism.

The India Song's India Song is reused here, but not as excessively as in India Song.
