Selected in the Orizzonti section at the Venice Film Festival, the fifth film by director Carine Tardieu deals with the theme of family ties, over a two year period following a tragedy. From its first scenes, L’Attachement is characterized by a mother’s loss, yet the film manages to avoid the pathetic thanks to the luminous, innocent performance of the character of Elliot by 6-year-old César Botti. Elin Kirschfink AFC, SBC, was director of photography for this film produced by Fabrice Goldstein and Antoine Rein (KarKaré Productions). (FR)

With Planète B, filmmaker Aude Léa Rapin (Les héros ne meurent jamais, in 2018) offers us an ambitious tale of anticipation. Two dimensions - real and virtual - coexist in a paradoxical prison film where the inmates are placed in a very... summery atmosphere. Jeanne Lapoirie, AFC, and her gaffer Guillaume Ader were responsible for the cinematography of this plunge into a 15-year future where the government has devised new means of incarceration to counter a group of young activists bent on defending the planet. The director’s second film is presented out of competition as the opening film of Critics’ Week at the 81st Venice Film Festival. (FR)

An adaptation of Vanessa Schneider’s story Tu t’appelais Maria Schneider, Jessica Palud’s second feature film, Maria depicts the destructive beginnings of actress Maria Schneider’s career. Through the reconstruction of a scene which caused a scandal in Bernardo Bertollucci’s 1972 film Last Tango in Paris, the director condemns domination and the abuse of power in the film industry, a subject that has become highly relevant and necessary. The cinematography, by Sébastien Buchmann, AFC, is a subtle reminder of the seventies, and revisits the film sets of that era. He reflects on this particularly captivating experience as a cinematographer. Maria is presented in the Official Selection, Cannes Première, at the Cannes 2024 Festival. (BB)

For his first feature-length fiction film, director Jonathan Millet proposes a truer-than-life plunge into the contemporary hunt for a Syrian war criminal. A film about spies in spite of themselves, but above all a gallery of characters with looks damaged by exile and the atrocities of war. Belgian cinematographer Olivier Boonjing, SBC (already interviewed three years ago with Rien à foutre, by Emmanuel Marre and Julie Lecoustre, also at Critics’ Week) is behind the camera to direct this thriller set between Strasbourg and the Middle East. This film is presented in the opening session and is also a serious contender for the Caméra d’or. (FR)

Julien Colona’s first feature film, Le Royaume, tells the story of a young girl who discovers her father’s true nature, and tries to love him at all costs.
