The closest linkage between Godard and Foucault could be made in ICI ET
AILLEURS where the relation between image and sound is elaborated in terms
of power, control, and production of reality (if not subjectivity): This
1971-1973 reflection engages with popularized early Foucauldian themes
elaborated in Les Mots et Les Choses (1966) and L'Archeologie du Savoir
(1969)--as well as with many other philosophical persepctives of the time.
The later Godard engages more with Derrida and Deleuze (and Deleuze propose
various interesting obervations on Godard's work--especially in the "Thought
and Cinema" chapter of his 2-volumes on Cinema).

of the existence of?
Chris Marker?
