In one of Chantal Akerman’s most penetrating character studies, an accomplished filmmaker makes her way through a series of Western European cities to promote her newest release.
Passing through a succession of exquisitely shot brief encounters, meeting a succession of equally lost souls across Germany and Belgium, Anna gradually reveals her emotional and physical detachment from the world.
This semi-autobiographical film was a major step forward for Akerman's work, mirroring her own, often turbulent, wanderings.
