I Don't Hear the Guitar Anymore

Based on Garrel’s long, tempestuous relationship with singer–counterculture icon Nico, the director’s unflinching tale of a German chanteuse who starts riding “the white horse” a little too often cuts to the bone. Then, once it hits marrow, it starts slicing even deeper. You can see its infuence in the works of Assayas, who personally selected the film for his BAM tribute program.
