Histoires de Festival (n° 3) Epreuves d'artistes

The story of modern cinema is written first at festivals. Following on from "Histoire(s) de festival" and "Les marches, etc. (une comédie musicale)", Gilles Jacob gathers together more elements telling the endless tale of the Festival de Cannes. These are fragments that, when spliced together, create one great press conference; one comprehensive story of film creation over the last 25 years. Thirty of the greatest international film directors reveal some of their secrets; think aloud; resume the state of the world in a single sentence after having fixed it on the lens of their camera.
