The theatre world is a familiar setting for the
films of Rivette. In Va savoir, the characters,
all quick-witted, well-read and cultured types,
revolve around each other in a delightful
potpourri of theatre, romance and theft. In the
end, everything lands on its feet and they all get
the partner they deserve, but before then, long
filmer Rivette takes two and a half hours to dwell
lightly on the vicissitudes around the six
protagonists. Camille is an actress with an
Italian company that is in Paris to perform a play
by Pirandello, Come tu mi vuoi. Her boyfriend Ugo
is the director and the company's most important
actor. Both have a hidden agenda for their trip to
Paris: Camille meets her ex Pierre, a professor of
philosophy, while Ugo is secretly researching a
supposedly lost play by Goldoni. In the archives,
he is assisted by the charming student Do, who
steals his heart. In turn, Do has a link with
Pierre: her stepbrother, the playwright Arthur,
namely steals an expensive ring from Pierre's wife
Sonia. After many sophisticated conversations,
secret rendezvous and references to Pirandello,
events reach a hilarious climax when Pierre and
Ugo challenge each other to an old-fashioned duel
for life and death.Une troupe de théâtre
italienne s'installe à Paris, dans le cadre d'une
tournée européenne, pour une série de
representations. Camille, qui est à la fois
l'actrice vedette, la compagne du metteur en scène
Ugo, est la seule comédienne d'origine francaise
de la troupe. C'est la première fois qu'elle
revient à Paris depuis qu'elle a dramatiquement
quitté l'homme avec qui elle vivait, Pierre, il y
a trois ans. Elle redoute secrètement de le
retrouver, non sans raison. Et elle ca le
retrouver. Ugo aussi a son secret. Sa présence à
Paris est pour lui l'occasion de vérifier
l'existence d'un manuscrit inédit de oldoni, dont
il ambitionne d'être le découvreur. Cette quête va
l'amener à rencontrer la troublante Dominique,
dite Do.
