Day After Day
Writer
Diez años después de Dieu sait quoi, Pollet realiza su último proyecto, que será póstumo: si allí transfiguraba los objetos de su entorno desde la imagen en movimiento, aquí lo hará desde la imagen fija, la fotografía. Su guionista y colaborador Jean-Paul Fargier será el encargado de terminar la película tras la muerte de Pollet.
Those Facing Us
Editor
In a big isolated house, Mikael, a musician, is composing a psalm. A young woman, Linda, comes to retreive a suitcase belonging to Sébastien, her companion and Mikael's friend. It contains hundreds of photographs from all over the world. While he is travelling, Sébastien has asked Linda to organise the photographs with a view to an exhibition. Mikael invites Linda to reside with him. She accepts. That is the heart of the film – an intertwining of photographs which, juxtaposed by Linda, begin to speak. In parallel with this, Linda receives cassette-letters from Sébastien. A subtle relationship is established between Linda, the young debutante, and Mikael, the man of experience. Mikael goes off to direct his psalm, Linda stays alone. The walls become covered with photographs – wall of happiness, wall of misery – the fight between Good and Evil. Linda learns of the accidental death of Sébastien and stays alone.
Imagine Robinson Crusoe
Editor
A cinematographic poem in the form of variations around the theme of Robinson, a utopian fable freely inspired by Daniel Defoe's novel, which speaks above all of solitude: the immense weakness of today's man in the face of loneliness is no longer that of the hero of the eighteenth century.
The Horla
Editor
A man who lives by himself becomes increasingly concerned that he is not alone. Based on the short story by Guy de Maupassant.
