Mircea Eliade et la redécouverte du sacré

Mircea Eliade, Pierre Vaneck

Mircea Eliade was a traditionalist Romanian novelist and philosopher. Following the disaster of the Second World War, he moved to Paris and Chicago, becoming a respected and influential historian of religions. He acquired something of the status of a guru, as poignantly told in the 1987 documentary Mircea Eliade et la redécouverte du sacré. The film features interviews with Eliade at the end of his life, artfully spliced with cuts to religious imagery on a background of moving spiritual music. It was released in 1987, the year after his death.

A bizarre mixture of unmasked propaganda for the apparent success of the collectivization process in Moldova with a fresh approach, sometimes extremely exciting, from a formal and narrative point of view.
