Self
A journey into contemporary French cinema through a series of exclusive interviews with the leading figures of GLBT French cinematography: André Téchiné, Catherine Corsini, Gaël Morel, Olivier Ducastel, Jacques Martineau and other old acquaintances of our film festival. This documentary offers an interesting insight into the official and non-official cinema from the point of view of gender identity. A look behind the scenes: discussing issues like censorship and self-censorship, women' cinema and misogyny, transvestism and homo-eroticism, cinema d'auteur and popular cinema (was the Nouvelle Vague homophobic?). From past to present, from Jacques Demy to François Ozon.

O filme centra-se em Sam (Yannick Renier), um solitário de 27 anos que viaja de carro pelas estradas francesas em direção ao Sul, mas que acaba por dar carona a três desconhecidos para afastar o tédio. Entre eles, estão dois irmãos, Léa (Léa Seydoux) e Mathieu (Théo Frilet), a que se juntará Jérémie (Pierre Perrier), por quem Léa sente alguma atração. Mas o foco da história é Sam, uma figura opaca e lacônica que vive marcada por um passado traumático – o pai suicidou-se quando ele tinha oito anos, e a mãe (Nicole Garcia) caiu em depressão e viveu parte da vida em reabilitação.

As the childless pair humorously adjust to their new surroundings, they soon spend more time concentrating on conceiving than in searching for the talented canine.
