Coqueluche
Cinematography
Very high heels tap against the pier's wooden slats. Nineteen-year-old Laurine, a beautiful young woman, has come to meet her lover Olivier, who is spending his vacation with his cousins on the small island of Bréhat, just like he does every summer. Laurine quickly becomes the butt of some people's jokes and secretly desired by others.
Kawasaki Keirin
Director of Photography
In the industrial city of Kawasaki, on the corner of the street where my grandparents used to live, bettors of keirin — a cycling race developed in post-war — gather in a tiny bar busy drinking, chatting and gambling at the velodrome nearby. Most are old men who struggle to make a living for themselves; most have lived in this town their whole lives. This film frankly captured with a fixed camera, gives voice to the lives of the elderly men who have been left behind by Japan's economy.
Juliet's Band
Director of Photography
Maglone and Juliette are 19. After graduating from high school, Juliette has decided to study the visual arts. She has made new friends whom she invited to her cottage in Normandy in order to introduce them to Maglone. “Juliette and I have known each other since the sixth grade. I don't know her squad, but... are my friend's friends also mine?”
Komorebitatchi
Director
This delicate film, shot in a region with a strong Shinto tradition, tries to capture the Shinto emphasis on man's harmony with nature. Without explaining, the film depicts rituals associated with the felling and planting of trees, which are seen as living beings. The film gives equal time to human actions, restrained discourse, trees, the wind and the sunlight, which almost mystically always enters the ritual at exactly the right time.
