L'Art

For the 30th anniversaire of FIDMarseille about thirty directors have done us the honor of offering us some very beautiful short films.

I give a friend a tale to read. He leaves his house, walks across the countryside, repeats the tale to himself, and arrives at the sea. And so it was that a stonecutter, who became rich, then king, then sun, then cloud, then rock, became a stonecutter once again.

Marion is a low-level employee in a high end ready-to-wear clothing business. He has a sole obsession: to present a prototype he's made to his boss, Monsieur Charlie. Jeanette, who he's very fond of, is worried and looks for him everywhere, while Michel, who controls the merchandise, wants to tell Monsieur Charlie that something isn't quite right about this particular morning.

A portrait of the filmmaker's 99-year old grandmother.

A french 72 minutes documentary by Pascale Bodet.

"Complet 6 pièces" takes place in Paris in some couture workshops. It is a film made up of sketches, where by six times, working situations slip.

A girl wakes up and heads to work in Pascale Bodet's first short film. Screened for the first time since it was shot three decades ago, Corps social demonstrates that something as simple as a meal or a bike ride can take on a playful and ineffable dimension. In her films, those moments in which seemingly nothing happens become a discreet but luminous choreography of everyday life.
