1962 yılında hem Cannes hem de Venedik Film Festivallerinden ödülle dönen, aynı yıl George Meliee ödülünün de sahibi olan Beşten Yediye Cleo, Vardanın yönetmenlik adına ilk başarısı. Kanser olduğu gerçeğiyle yüzleşen genç ve güzel bir Fransız pop şarkıcısı Cleonun öyküsü. Kendince geri dönüşleriyle hayatını irdelediği doksan dakikayı Cleoyla birlikte yaşıyoruz. Aynı zamanda Cleonun hayata dair sorularıyla da karşı karşıya kalıyoruz: Böyle bir zamanda ne yapılabilir?, Nasıl yapılır? Cleo, bu soruların cevaplarını ve kişisel ilişkilerini sorguluyor. Bu soruların cevaplarını hem bugünde, yaşadığı hayatta hem de yeni tanıdığı insanlarda arıyor. Kanser psikozunun, korkusunun çevrelediği filmde zaman ilerledikçe değişik insan yüzlerinin geçtiği Paris sokaklarına, içeriğini kaybetmiş hareketsiz ve durgun bir zamana dönüyoruz...

Yeni Roman hareketinin ve savaş sonrası sinemanın önemli isimlerinden olan seksen yaşındaki Agnes Varda, sık sık işlerinde kendisini kameranın önüne koymuştur. Ama bunların sonuncusu, özgeçmiş niteliğinde bir deneme, yönetmenin bir sahilde geri geri yürüdüğü sahneyle açılan "bir çiçek dürbünü, bir kolaj, bir fantezi" adeta. Sahildeyiz, çünkü biri gelip onu açsa içindeki sahillerin ortaya çıkacağını söylüyor. Yönetmen dostu Chris Marker’ın da elle çizilmiş bir kedi cismine bürünerek anlattığı Agnes’in Plajları, Varda’nın fotoğraflar, eski çekimler, film sahneleri ve günümüzde çekilen sekanslardan örülü yaşamına ve hafızasına dair derin, çekici ve dokunaklı ifadelerden oluşuyor.
