Quote:
"What is important in [La vie rêvée...] is the element of rêve or fantasy and its relationship with the women's situation. Through editing, mise en scène, and mobile camerawork, the film at every moment locates the women both in the concrete spaces of the city, parental home, work, and landscape and in a world of images and sounds that are external and interiorized, that come from elsewhere but inhabit the self in such a way that the development of identity is dependent upon their exploration, acceptance, or rejection."
