Chance encounters, cat ladies, and a car-infested Paris. On this episode we discuss the 1962 French New Wave classic Cleo from 5 to 7, directed by Agnes Varda and starring Corrine Marchand. Come tour the streets of the City of Love with a beautiful, young chanteuse as she learns to confront her own mortality, while sitting in cafes and shopping for hats. Learn about gender mainstreaming, how Paris narrowly escaped being destroyed by highways, and why just walking down the city street as a woman can be a radical act of resistance.
