“Whoever considers himself too important for little jobs,” Jacques Tati once said, “is too little for important jobs.” In these three selected short films, produced within a period of 30 years, Tati proves himself to be a master of the minor form. As a director and actor who develops the extravagant and inexhaustible genius of his mise en scène in the brief moments which represent the most important scenes of his great films, a game which is entirely corporeality and motion.
