Wuthering Heights: Love, Hate and Vengeance
Producer
In 1847, British writer Emily Brontë (1818-48), perhaps the most enigmatic of the three Brontë sisters, published her novel Wuthering Heights, a dark romance set in the desolation of the moors, a unique work of early Victorian literature that stunned contemporary critics.
Hervé Guibert, la mort propagande
Producer
From this "inexorable disease", Hervé Guibert did not recover. The miracle he had so much hoped for did not happen. But, before his death in 1991, three years after learning of his HIV-positive status, he engraved in his literary and photographic work "the places of [his] suffering", "the stations of [his] way of the cross". With his thin body and sunken cheeks, the handsome man with curly hair that he was, the one whose clear gaze radiated from the seaside photos, fought a fierce battle against AIDS. A fight of every moment against the decay of the body, observed and commented with a methodical care in his autobiographical novels, in particular "To the Friend Who Did Not Save My Life" (1990) and "The Compassionate Protocol" (1991), and of which he testified on television on the set of "Apostrophes"...
Coração de Cachorro
Other
Centrado na cachorra Lolabelle, que morreu em 2011 e era muito querida pela diretora, o filme é um ensaio pessoal que combina lembranças de infância, diários em vídeo, reflexões sobre dados, cultura de vigilância e a visão budista sobre a morte, além de tributos a artistas, escritores, músicos e pensadores. Numa espécie de colagem visual, o filme examina como histórias são construídas e contadas —e como as usamos para dar sentido às nossas vidas.

In 1928, as the talkies threw the film industry and film language into turmoil, Chaplin decided that his Tramp character would not be heard. City Lights would not be a talking picture, but it would have a soundtrack. Chaplin personally composed a musical score and sound effects for the picture. With Peter Lord, the famous co-creator of Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit, we see how Chaplin became the king of slapstick comedy and the superstar of the movies.
