Isolation, death, rebirth: the rites of passage experienced by the main characters in La nuit (Ferron), La notte (Antonioni) and Le Grand Yaka take place in the course of the night, which prompts the search for their own identity. "Tell me about your nights, and I will tell you who you are" could be the motto of Francois, Lidia, Giovanni and Lepetit. Whether in the realm of dreams or reality, these three stories depict a universe devoid of humanity, where lost souls try to surmount crises and seek truth in their nightly adventures. Gradually, the night---a world of infinite possibilities---will allow them to relive their past and illuminate their future. But is there still hope for them? The anguish, the inability to communicate and urban solitude are at the core of these tales of borderline insanity which all end with the dawn of a new day.

Mimalism represents a film style which still partially predominates on the contemporary art festivals although it reached its peak during in the beginning of the 21. century. Minimalism is a style which supresses the pallete of formalistic tools, expressive elements and typical narative structures and drama. It also works extensively with time and the depiction of everyday. Minimalistic cinema experience thus stimulates the audience to make their own interpretations of the story and the form altogether. The aim of this work is to analyze those historical cinema tendencies that bear most resemblance to the modern style of minimalism. I consider these films (and styles) to be the most predetermenative to the style of minimalism: Italian neorealism, spiritual work of Ozu and Bresson, experimental structural movies, the cinematic masterpiece Jean Dielman, 23 Commerce Quay, 1080 Brussels from Chantal Akerman and Antonionis movies with their narative structure.
