Marta, Luc and Charlotte, aged twenty-five to thirty-years old, have a lot to share in the city of Paris: friendships, demands and refusals. Ideas grow in the occupied university departments. THE EPISODES - SPRING 2018 is so singular in its approach to existence and so sovereign in the way it establishes its own language that all attempts at defining, assigning a genre or a previously identified aspect of film, are doomed to failure.

In 1786, Goethe goes to Italy, to accomplish a childhood fancy. But how can he see the beauty of his Arcadia? There, everything is too ardent for the eyes, starting with Vesuvius which is erupting, and this mysterious Englishwoman famous for her “Attitudes,” a show inspired by antique sculpture.
More than 3,000 miners of Chile’s La Pampa were shot down by the national army during a demonstration in Iquique, a massacre told in Luis Advis’s 1969 cantata Santa María de Iquique.

Bayer-Broc upends cinematic convention in a beguiling adaptation that is entirely her own; this medium-length musical is at once personal and political, reverent and burlesque.
