Do Not Commit Adultery

This experimental film, part of Godard's Dziga Vertov Group period, uses a documentary-like approach to explore themes of political revolution, love, and the nature of filmmaking itself. It follows a group of young activists and filmmakers grappling with their ideals and the realities of their struggles, blurring the lines between fiction and reality.

As an avant-garde and highly political film from a controversial period in Godard's career, 'Do Not Commit Adultery' (also known as 'One Plus One' or 'Sympathy for the Devil') received a mixed to polarized reception. Critics often found it challenging and fragmented, while others lauded its radical experimentation and potent political commentary. Its reception is heavily tied to the viewer's understanding and appreciation of Godard's post-1968 cinematic direction.

• Praised for its raw, anti-establishment energy and experimental approach to documentary filmmaking.
• Criticized for its dense political discourse and often opaque narrative structure.
• Seen as a significant, albeit challenging, example of political cinema from the late 1960s/early 1970s.
