It is a world without sound, without c o l o u r. Everything there-the earth, the trees, the people, the water and the air-is dipped in monotonous gre y. Grey rays of the sun across the grey sky, grey eyes in gre y faces, and the leaves of the trees are ashen gre y. It is not life but its shadow, it is not motion but its soundless spectre.

In 1995, he invited me to lecture to his students on Frederick Wiseman's documentaries, the subject of my Harvard PhD, in his course 'The Nonfiction Film'. Later, he invited me to be on his panel on Jean Rouch and film at the 2005 Society for Cinema and Media Studies conference in London. 2 And finally, he came to Australia. 3 It was a rare delight to be able to welcome him to Sydney, after so many years of
