The further she proceeds the more professor Jean Dussart – for unclear reasons – tries to discourage her. But Lucie is persistent, even stubborn, and, aided by Vincent, a mute street mime, she manages to attain her goal in spite of everything.

The Vanishing Point 2007 (Ce que mes yeux ont vu)
Uploaded by: samoh4855
A film that demands and deserves close and private attention. Laurent de Bartillat’s camera lens is a living entity, not merely seeing but feeling and perceiving the world as it is being discovered by his actors. “The Vanishing Point” is a magnificent film; an excavation of character, the art of Watteau and cinema itself. It is the only film I have seen that conveys the compelling effect that the past can exert on an individual. A certain kind of personality, one who is somewhat awkward in terms of the social norms of the present, can discern and reveal secrets of the past that would otherwise have been forever obscured by time. Lucie is such a personality, obsessed by a mystery belonging to another age. Like all great films, “Ce que mes yeux ont vu” uses fiction to reveal something that is profoundly true about humanity. It is a work consisting of a myriad of beautifully observed fragments held together by a confident, uniting vision that has its own atmospheric authenticity. Bravo!
