Ulysses, an idealistic, novice film director, invites Clothilde, his young and pretty neighbor, to accompany him to the Love Film Festival on Réunion Island, where his debut film has been selected. Unfortunately, the day before they're due to leave, Ulysses learns that his film has been removed from the program. Afraid of disappointing Clotilde, he hides the truth and flies with her to Réunion, determined to do everything in his power to get his film back in the official selection and, at the same time, win the favors of the young woman, who dreams of becoming an actress. But Ulysses must cope with internal rivalries and struggles behind the scenes if he wants love and cinema to triumph.

In a series of sketches, professional film extras come before the camera one by one to recite the text printed on the back of the resumé photos sent to film producers. If some of these presentations elicit laughter, don't blame the extras, victims of their own illusions, obliged to take part in these cheap displays. A film about the cinema and about life, Nature Morte goes beyond cruelty to create a comi-tragic human document.

On 13 January 1977, Henri Langlois died. For forty years, he had been the world's foremost film archivist, establishing the French Cinémathèque and its Museum of Cinema. Fourteen years later, on 13 January 1991, in the Montparnasse cemetery, his friends gathered to unveil his monument, a collage of photos on stone. The film records that day and includes testimonials from Marcel Carné, Samuel Fuller, and others, as well as archival footage of Langlois. At the dedication, they played a recording of Langlois' last interview: "[There can be] no compromise in art." Of Langlois Fuller says, "He was poetry."

Laurent Terzieff was more than a good actor, after having been a real "star" in the cinema, through his professional choices, he gradually became a real "conscience of the theater", so much had he thought about his art. He received six Molière awards and was always unanimously praised by his peers. “THE GHOST OF LAURENT TERZIEFF” is a daring portrait, as it explores in depth “the secrets of a soul” and the atypical journey of the actor.

Five romantic characters share their lives in a vast castle. Each in his own way is looking for an absolute: J. wanders in the graveyard, B. hacks, C. causes love adventures, A. walks the forest on his horse, and F. repeats in a rock band . A. and J. nourish an idyll that leads them on an "initiatory" journey. Different states of mind pass through them, a sweet mixture that will make them rediscover the world of childhood and haunted castles ... Sonorized with the voice of Antonin Artaud, shot with a very contrasting photographic process, Le rouge de chine refers to the origins of cinematograph.

"Catch" is a little different than other sports. Each Sunday afternoon or Saturday night, catch brings several hundred people to Elysée Montmartre in Paris. In this film, you can see different kinds of ‘catch': catch with four fighters, catch with women, catch with masks.... A film shot with a certain sense of humor, both fun and pathetic.
