The film explores themes central to Rohmer and Douchet's filmmaking philosophy, dissecting narrative structure, visual language, and artistic intent. Shot in the essayistic tradition of French cinema, Postface à Tire-au-Flanc bridges film criticism and creative practice, demonstrating how cinema itself can become a medium for intellectual discourse.
