Paris Belongs to Us

In this enigmatic 1961 French mystery film, Jacques Rivette weaves a complex web of paranoia and intrigue around a young university student, Anne, who becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind a series of mysterious events and deaths among a group of bohemian friends in post-war Paris. As the lines between reality and fantasy blur, Anne's investigation leads her to question the true nature of the group's sinister tensions and the identity of those responsible for Juan's tragic demise. With its innovative style and philosophical themes, Rivette's feature-length debut is a haunting exploration of existential anxiety, paranoia, and the fragility of human relationships in the face of Cold War-era uncertainty.
