The private life of several individuals is revealed in front of cameras settled in the bedrooms which they use.

A young French film maker, desparate for work in his new Canadian homeland, takes a job with a crew making a gay porn movie.

The Mirage saga began fifty years ago. From evolution to technical progress, this family of aircraft has established itself as one of the most resounding successes of the global aeronautical industry. From the Mirage III to the 2000, this program presents most of the aircraft in the series. It is made up exclusively of rare images, mostly in color, and we must admit that this selection of films from different eras has many advantages. Rare or poorly distributed images, we find the first flights of the first Mirage at Melun-Villaroche, that of the Mirage IV , the take-offs of the Balzac , the Mirage F1 , the unique prototype Mirage 4000 in demonstration and of course the Mirage 2000 in its element. But as these planes were born from an industrial logic, the Ouragan , Mystère IV and other Etendards were not forgotten to finally arrive at the Rafale A that we see during its approach tests on the Clemenceau.

Work in progress: an attempt to reconstruct an improbable story. Model of a synchronized multiple projection.

For the first time, a camera enters the prohibited mining areas of Katanga province. We meet Congolese miners who, for 1 dollar a day, descend to 50 meters deep, in galleries dug in a friable rock which threatens to collapse at any time. Around them civil war and looting are still rampant. This poignant documentary reveals how the young democracy of the DRC is doing its best to install a sustainable redistribution of mineral wealth, an effective administration and national education.

Did you ever walk among flowers? Yes? And when they sing?

One minute of spring in Nantes.

This film is a tribute to Charlie Chaplin and Richard Gere. Even if I only know Richard very badly, I think Bill looks like him. Obviously we prefer Charlie, and Bob is my Charlie. It is also a tribute to my two daughters who suffer from the same "mirror syndrome" (no... of course not).

‘‘Miroirs Obscurs, slave collection’ is about endless sexual preliminaries, a prologue to an sado-masochist sexuel intercourse. The film redimensions erotism between apparition and vanishing, revelation and suspension as if looked at from the inside. No story, just a quake, a permanent tension, a continuous flux. Behind the metamorphosis of the body into an animal or even a chimere (?), something is at play between the rawness and the marvellous of carnal bodies. This video is part of the Slave collection : a series of portraits of men show as sexslaves. Thirteen anonymous actors took part with accessories from the SM scene : geisha balls, stretchballs, iron godemichet, piercing rings, cagoule,...

White bread female masturbation, filmed with a (live) background of french first lady Bernadette Chirac on a talk show: channel surfing required, as vapidity is even less erotic than the litany of death in the news.

The film was shoot as a single S.8 roll in iris garden of the Casa Maure, and in a field of Normandy. The light filtering through the petals,[ which act as a sort of screen,] both illuminate matter and reveal the structure of the plant. In the first part of the work was shoot mostly in macro, so prepulsing ones vision, into the luminous mouleclus that make up living things. A sort of bees eye view of the world. Gradualy the spacialisation changes to one of an open landscape, and a field of buttercups. Beyond the vision of flowers and vegatation the work is a meditation on our place in the structure of the cosmos and order of things. Do we have a macro vision of our self and context, are we mircroscope, with an incomplete view and as ephemeral as a petal.

Directed by Johanna Vaude.

Car races, planes and airports, men and women waiting, an eagle in flight, a bison in the fog. Sustained music and silence. Analogical editing, without words, orchestrates it all. The encounter between electronic sonorities and images frozen in a vacuum creates an anxiety-inducing and hypnotic rhythm. Facing this suspended world, we take in fully the necessity of the distance that characterises Gagnon’s films; and also our case. We would like to be part of this reality which we observe and judge from afar. We would like to change it. But “homo faber” is now merely an expression of past. The machine is now directing humanity, dictating speed and concern. In the free association of images, the body language says more than the words.

The Barada, the river around which the city of Damascus was built, is drying up. The film follows his journey through the city, its neighborhoods, its inhabitants, its noises and its smells.

Part of the No Ghost Just a Shell series, this short video introduces the virtual character Annlee as a suspended presence, caught between animation and conceptual narrative. In just under five minutes, Huyghe explores themes of agency, temporality, and identity: Annlee exists simultaneously as a digital “shell” and a vessel for projected emotions, highlighting the tension between a created character and the interpretations imposed by viewers and collaborators. Minimalist visuals and silent animation emphasize her ambiguous, haunting presence.

Isabelle Clarke paints a portrait of Axel Ganz, CEO of Prisma Presse, who started from nothing and, in twenty-five years, built France's second-largest magazine publishing group. From Géo to Gala, Capital to Voici, Prima to Femme Actuelle, and Télé-Loisirs to TV Grandes Chaînes, three hundred million copies of these magazines are sold each year. Numerous personal documents belonging to Axel Ganz, including photos and films, most of which have never been seen before, illustrate the film.

Memory like photographic images...

Electricians and electronics workers, pharmacists, textile and printing workers, painters and photographers, light workers, theatre, cinema and television workers, as well as the trades of sorting in food, are all jobs forbidden to daltonians; army, navy, transportation... Transgressing the prohibition, going to the botanical garden and having friends were the additional conditions necessary for the realization of the blue bean.

Wandering Cambodian peasants, stripped of their land, decide to camp out in front of the National Assembly so as not to disappear, not to forget, to honour the damned and the disappeared. Rimbaud was right. Screening accompanied by a performance sung by the filmmaker.

Filmed with a zoom in a movie theater in 2003, the hand of an usher eating a cake in her box, a scene from GOOD BYE DRAGON INN by Tsai Ming Liang. The adaptation of the digital camera to the context, distance-zoom-light, brings about a pulsating, flicker-like phenomenon.

Seven repeat offenders are serving sentences of 9, 12, 18, 25 years, in a 15 m² cell. They accepted me into their daily life with my camera. The prison administration gave us 10 days.

Musicians Sarah Murcia and Albinde la Simone revisit some of the decade's most memorable songs ("Vertigo de l'amour," "Marcia Baila," "Billie Jean," "Careless Whisper," "Like a Virgin," "In Between Days," "Take on Me," and "Ghostbusters"), with the collaboration of artists such as Dave, who surprises us with an inspired cover of Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams." It is also an opportunity to pay a vibrant tribute to Alain Bashung and Fred Chichin (the late half of Les Rita Mitsouko), whose talent and originality illuminated these years of creative diversity.

Throughout the video, image, sound and language (spoken, sung or written – on street signs or in the subtitles) are combined, and re-combined, to reveal ‘Algeria’ as a site of competing discourses, a culture in the constant process of ‘becoming’ (Stuart Hall 1990). We are presented with fragments of individual yet intersecting micro- narratives – alternative, partial, local perspectives, which together counter the persistently reductive, totalising images of Algeria in certain Western media.

"Days and nights" of work and rest in my flat set up as my workshop. For those who still believe that a free artistic activity (here the cinematograph) is not a kind of "work" (although this word's common meaning is at the very least darkened by suspect political considerations). Although "work" is not a "value" but at most a remainder of Judeo-Christian culpability (Adam and Eve driven out of the Eden and condemned to live of their work), it seems likely that human hyperactivity is effectively at the origin of this famous "reheating" of the planet. Thus, I conclude, so that this "work value" is a pretext for the capitalists to reduce the working classes to slavery and hence carry out their destroying madness. For my part, a moderate (artistic) activity helps me to keep in touch with my fellow humans and to maintain a "social" bond, the rest is only vanity...

A psychedelic journey reproducing in sound and images the hallucinogenic experience of an acid trip, mixing original video with images taken from TV news, porn films and army stock movies. ...Substitution Number 4

The Clouds are at the same time first image/light/screen/depth to the modulations, to the ceaseless mutations, dynamic, open and fluid. The rectangle of sight, and projection, returns to the cut operated in time and space. Time and space stretched, without limits, accentuated by the soundtrack. White, infinite...
