Va Savoir (Who Knows?) (Palace Films Collection)
The luminous Jeanne Balibar plays Camille, a French actress, who after three years in Italy returns to Paris as the leading lady in a production of Pirandello's As You Desire Me. Her return is bittersweet, as Camille has never resolved her feelings for Pierre, the French academic she abandoned. Meanwhile her current lover, famous stage director Ugo searches Paris for a lost unpublished manuscript of Goldini. This leads him to the home of the beautiful young student Dominique, whose brother Arthur is involved with Pierre's wife, Sonia.
Passions will rise. Each will be confronted by the truth. The theatre, once again, will serve as a backdrop and a revelation of the truth. Va Savoir offers reflection on life, romance, theatre, art making and love making and the impossibility of trying to disentangle these areas.
