Synopsis

In four chapters, with lyrical titles borrowed from Rimbaud or other powerful voices, L’Impossible moves from Calais to Paris, from black and white to colour, from silent to sound, from Super 8 to video, from stifled words to free jazz, from winter snow to the 1st May demonstrations, from bodies of migrants to a satirical tract against the volte-face of a ruling class. Having a wide perspective, getting food for both the eye and the mind: that’s the project. Because Sylvain George, as we have come to understand, perceives his film making activity as a mission with at least two purposes. On one hand, to claim the avant-gardes’ formal inheritance, drawing on the unbridled vigour of their “logical revolts”. On the other hand, getting these manifestations to testify for those who cry out for justice and justly call for shots other than those laid down by prevailing standards. Evocative, though with precise dates and references, silent while at the same time in quest of the most just eloquence, this cinema aims at bringing together the past and what is yet unnamed.
