| Summary: | Frequently described as a reflection on the traumatic history of the 20th century, the cinema of Jean-Luc Godard has managed to call attention several times to the geographical atlas, forcing us to conceive the practice of assemblage as an unceasing juxtaposition of different places. This article sets out to rethink his cinema as a large assemblage laboratory, where the spatial component of the image as well as the geographical and political ones are called into question. In speaking of assemblage, we turn to the concepts of “anachronism” and “anatopism”, the latter seemingly never granted due theoretical prominence. |
