Jacques Brel, fou de vivre
Writer
Presents archival material as well as interviews with those who were close to Jacques Brel, who died way too young, at age 49. Jacques Brel sings "Madeleine" over the opening credits of this film and immediately the audience is drawn into the intense theatricality of his performance. Left without a choice, they follow his lead, join the chanson and are left sweaty and breathless, just like Brel. Philippe Kohly, a documentary filmmaker who is renowned for profiling artists, created a fascinating portrait of the legendary singer of Flemish descent who became a master of French chanson.

L’enfer de Matignon
Writer
In a series of long interviews, 12 prime ministers talk about their experience in the upper echelons of power. The function of prime minister, torn between the president and the parliament, appointed without necessarily being elected but responsible for everything, is at the center of debate. With the exception of Jacques Chirac (1974-1976 and 1986-1988), deliberately left out because of his image as French President, those who governed France for the past 35 years agreed to discuss the exercise of power, as seen through archive footage, but also how they experienced it personally. Filmed in the same studio and sitting in the same chair, 12 French prime ministers talk freely about their time in office, from their appointment until their resignation.

Dalida, le grand voyage
Director
From her life in Cairo to being a discor star, from success to suicide, Dalida reigned over the hit parades throughout the world. Although the artist's career began at the same time as popular music emerged as an industry and was acclaimed everywhere as "la marchande de bonheur" (the merchant of happiness). She encountered unhappiness ; she experienced many deaths and rebirths. Her forced march towards fame resembles a frantic search ending in despair.
