Page "Chris Marker" Paragraph 15

After the documentary Le Mystère Koumiko in 1965, Marker made Si j ' avais quatre dromadaires, an essay-film that, like La jetée, is a photomontage of over 800 photographs that Marker had taken over the past 10 years from 26 countries.

The commentary takes on a slightly different dimension than his previous commentaries by using a fictitious photographer have a conversation with two friends to discuss the photos.

The film's title is an allusion to a poem by Guillaume Apollinaire.

It was the last film in which Marker includes " travel footage " for many years.
