Here and Elsewhere

Here and Elsewhere (French: Ici et Ailleurs) is a 1976 documentary film by Jean-Luc Godard and Anne-Marie Miéville.

Here and Elsewhere incorporates footage of Palestinian fedayeen in Jordan, Lebanon, and the West Bank taken for Jusqu'à la victoire, which had been commissioned by the Arab League.

[2] Primarily the film is a criticism of how capitalism's use of media distorts the aims of liberative and revolutionary causes, among other aspects of economic and social disparities.

[3] Ici et Ailleurs marks the beginning of Godard's transitional period, which found him experimenting in very original ways with video, and political and representational polemics; as such, it shares many of the traits of both his radical-era films and the video-centered work that followed.

It is also one of his first projects with Miéville, who remained the major collaborator in his life and work since that period.
