Rue du retrait is a film which is quite unique to René Féret for various reasons.Firstly,it is a film which he shot in his own area,near his own house.Rue de retrait is the name of the street in 20th arrondissement in Paris where Mr.Féret stays.So in a way the location afforded a lot of familiarity in terms of location to the cinéaste. Secondly,the making of this film will always remain a miracle of sorts for René Féret as no big production house was willing to finance such a brave,absolutely uncommon film in France.So this film was finally made due to René Féret's personal intervention and highly individual efforts. Its visual style was applauded by a great French filmmaker named Bertrand Tavernier who has long been one of René Féret's admirers.
Rue du retrait
The message of this coastguard film was to raise awareness that HM Coastguard had become a ‘999’ service enabling the public to raise the alarm as it does for other emergency services. It was made in 1968 and, highly unusually for an animation short, remade and re-released in 2006.

Filmed in the south of France during the summers of 2006 and 2007, this short film is enough to bear witness to a horrific spectacle witnessed by children of all ages in the arenas. Young teenagers cut their teeth on young bulls and are introduced to the practice of bullfighting in French bullfighting schools, most of which are subsidized by public funds. Beyond the atrocity of bullfighting, the film powerfully demonstrates the need to ban minors from the arenas, as is the case in Catalonia.
