Jean-Luc Godard s Hélas Pour Moi (1993) is a provocative film about faith and desire starring Gérard Depardieu. Inspired by the Greek myth of AIcmene and Amphitryon, it investigates the story of a god inhabiting the body of a man to experience the pleasures of the fIesh. The incident is toId through the eyes of a publisher, Abraham KIimt (Bernard VerIey), who is interviewing the inhabitants of a Swiss viIlage regarding the strange story of RacheI (Laurence Masliah) and Simon Donnadieu (Depardieu). One summer Simon Ieaves on a business trip, but soon after a doppelgänger arrives in the village purporting to be Simon. He appears to be a god in human form, and he pursues Rachel in a series of philosophicaI seductions that explore divine and physical ecstasy. One of Godard s most beautiful fiIms (shot by DP CaroIine Champetier), HéIas pour moi is a thought- provoking and sensuous work of art.
