La dette de la France 1974-2015
Director
Sartre/Camus, une amitié déchirée
Director
Built around many archives, often unpublished, original caricatures by Rita Mercedes (specialist in writer's caricatures), readings of texts by Camus and Sartre, the film departs from the marked paths of the usual documentary-fiction and takes an original form which renews the genre, which has not failed to be underlined by the press: the characters of Camus and Sartre are evoked by shadows that evolve in period settings ... central theme of the film, still relevant today as Annick Cojean underlined when presenting the film: the legitimization of violence. It was on this issue, through the divergent positions they took on the legitimization of the gulags, that their friendship broke. The screening of the film was an opportunity, for the first time and on a large scale, in the newspaper L’Humanité to get closer to Camus, until then reduced to the rank of anti-communist.

Culture, une affaire d'État
Director
Culture ... an affair of state, it is a historical novel journey to the heart of the Fifth Republic Cultural Affairs of France. Malraux, first holder of the ministerial office in 1959, to Catherine Tasca, in 2002, the film tells the scenes of major events during the cultural policy of the state: the case Langlois around the Cinematheque Landowski case-Boulez on the reform of music, the construction of Beaubourg, the Louvre, the conditions under which the music festival has been decided or that the cultural exception publicized. From archives, interviews or testimony, it is a political reading of unexpected contemporary artistic life which is at issue here.

Albert Camus, la tragédie du bonheur
Cinematography
El documental intenta romper con la figura negativa, trágica, casi ‘naif’ que suele atribuirse a esa gran figura de la literatura y de la historia política moderna. Presenta la biografía de Camus en tres partes, la primera dedicada a su infancia en la tierra de sus orígenes: Argelia. La segunda parte hace hincapié en su escritura, en sus obras ‘El Extranjero’ y ‘El mito de Sísifo’, de 1941 a 1952. La última parte presenta a un Camus más íntimo en cuanto a su círculo parisino y su ideología política.
