UCCA proudly presents “One Day with Chris Marker,” a full day of works by the French director. A tireless explorer of his time and technology, Chris Marker (1921-2012) made over fifty shorts and feature films, often in collaboration with other filmmakers, philosophers, or artists.

This special day-long event at UCCA includes seven features and short films, revealing Marker’s highly distinctive and genre-defying style.

You may also buy tickets on the day of the event at the UCCA front desk. Tickets are 60 RMB and include admission to the museum.
