Essay / Elements of the New French End in Irreversible
The New French End is probably one of the most controversial cinematic periods in French history. Since the 1990s until today, the idea of breaking with classic cinematographic techniques has emerged. The idea came to do everything possible to make films that were out of the ordinary.

The point is that we need to see them to face reality and think about what we can do to change things. I think that the ideas of the New French Extremity have the advantage of making people aware of the situations and giving them a chance to change these problems.
