Each of the 15 discs will present a curation of films, organised according to the different themes in Varda’s work. These include her time in Paris, experiences of married life and her various artistic collaborations including films she made with Jane Birkin and Jacques Demy. The anthology will also include her final work, Varda by Agnes, released a few months after her death

A selection of Varda’s photography and installation art is also set to be featured in the upcoming collection.
