L.A. Tea Time<\/em>\u00a0is an unusual travelogue which is at times meditative and at times haunted, recounting the adventures of Sophie and Isabelle with humor and a soft touch of magic. <\/span>The writer and director, Sophie B\u00e9dard Marcotte, creates a biographical account of her quest for a meeting with the filmmaker Miranda July (Me and You and Everyone We Know<\/em> (2005), The Future<\/em> (2011)). The resulting piece is about the often grueling and thankless process of independent and low-budget film creation and a personal self-discovery that is modest yet beautiful. The films seems like a genuine homage to the genius Chantal Akerman who is oddly cast in the film as a divine creature that talks from heaven directly to Sophie. In a way, this documentary bears resemblances with the cinema of the Belgian director: the still camera portraying the daily life of the author, a nearly inexistent plot and a pilgrimage to find meaning in an empty modern world. The strongest aspect of the film is that it incorporates all these resemblances with a sophisticated and extraordinary sense of humor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sophie\u2019s intimistic approach allows plenty of room for detours and adventure, avoiding the standards of a more didactic and controlled cinema. She directed a first fiction entitled Winter Claire<\/em> in 2017, which was presented at Festival du Nouveau Cinema, the NYC Independent Film Festival and the Cineteca Nacional in Mexico. Her latest project, L.A. Tea Time<\/em>, premiered at Visions du Re\u0301el in the Spring of 2019.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
