There is a scene that me and some of my friends are sure we’ve seen and can’t remember where from! It’s someone (we think a girl) watching the scene of Vivre sa Vie where she watches Joan of Arc. Anybody knows this? I can’t find it. Thank you!
The film is Soldate Jeannette (2013) and I’m really looking for it for a while! I watched this in the festival circuit during 2013 – it won the Tiger Award in Rotterdam – and like you said, one of the main characters watches Godard’s film in a cinema in the moment when Karina watches Falconetti in Joan of Arc – three films in one scene!
