"Every Good Friday, since 1980, I film the ceremonial of the Stations of the Cross of the Passion of Christ in Burzet, in an isolated village in the Ardèche, where the inhabitants, for seven centuries, dress up to celebrate and perpetuate this religious rite. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Burzet's 2021 Passion of Christ Ceremonial has been canceled. To compensate for this cancellation, I tried an experiment..." Says Alain Paucard of the film: "Courant reworks the images, passing from realism to a sort of expressionism which, enlarging the line, warms it."

"On the occasion of the premiere of Nel Regno di Napoli in Cannes in 1978, Werner Schroeter gave me an audio interview about this film and about his work in general. Our meeting took place on the terrace of the Hotel Majestic, in the midst of excitement of the Cannes festival life, a few days after the screening of Nel Regno di Napoli and in the presence of the photographer Jean-Claude Moireau. Vivre à Naples et mourir is the audio capture of that informal meeting that happened on 20 May 1978 and which is, as per director's wish, more like a casual conversation than an interview in the strict sense of the term (a set of questions and answers).
