Ackerman's "Toute une nuit" is a series of short episodes that depict many people's fantasies and dramatic moments on a summer night. This movie has almost no dialogue, but relies on a series of eye-catching contrasts to achieve its effect: a sultry night, in a spiritless and plain Brussels background, vividly and crudely portrays passion in a profound and painful way. Another masterpiece of the director, considered second only to Jeanne Dillman
