          “Here, the subject of night is by definition inexhaustible. It tells of the night in towns, small or large, in villages or metropolises, silent or soundfilled,lifeless or agitated. Each recognises what they can… Klopfenstein’s unsystematic, non-metaphysical editing also remains very mysterious.” (Serge Daney, Cahiers du cinéma)
“We take a trip, so to speak, around the night, just as a traveller can take a trip around the world.” (Jacques Aumont)
