1966. “Now when I wake up, I fear that there are pieces missing” says Juliette, a young resident of the large, newly built high-rise apartments in the Paris suburbs who has adopted yet simultaneously struggles against a dehumanising way of life that occasionally leads her into prostitution, and which is the political project of a (capitalist) class-ridden society. Faking a sociological survey that he transforms into a critical manifesto, Godard gives a fragmented rendering of different aspects of the life of Juliette and her fellow young women from the suburbs in order to counter the profusion of suffocating signs with a stream of consciousness that opens up other passages into the world, adding his own whispering voice to his character’s.
