Filmes

Nefertiti [Alternate version]
Director
the movie's intended runtime was 100 minutes but there was bad business with the Italian producer. Cinecitta kidnapped some film rolls until the French paid their share of this Latvia/France/Italy co-production but the French producer went bankrupt in the meantime...So Guy Gilles was forced to make a 70 minutes edit with the rolls he had and allegedly he also rushed off the French dubbing. So the 93 minutes version include some missing footages and the original audio but it was not edited by the director who died in 1996 and never got access to the missing rolls.

She must say goodbye to her lover, the sculptor Yame. But in Egypt she appears to have a great talent for power. After the death of Amanophis she collapses on the heir to the throne Akhematon.

La Vie filmée
Director
An issue of the television series La vie filmée, based on films by amateur filmmakers, and retracing here the life of the French between 1946 and 1953. The images shot in the immediate post-war period bear witness to the difficulties of resuming life daily. Confronting individuals with their personal archives nearly thirty years later, the film nostalgically questions the gap created between intimate memory and empirical memory (documents).

What a Flash!
The producers of this French film took approximately 100 people, put them on a soundstage and had them improvise this film based on the premise that they are on a spaceship escaping from the dictators of earth and only have a few days to live. Improvisation is a dangerous art-form; unprepared amateurs invariably come up with gross caricatures when challenged to improvise. The actors' choices in this film include an allegorical pageant of the life of Jesus, a marriage, an orgy, and some genuinely affectionate moments. Nonetheless, as an experimental effort in large-group improvisation, the film is instructive. - Clarke Fountain, Rovi

La luxure
Assistant Director
Dois artistas relembram sua infância e o que imaginavam ser os sete pecados capitais enquanto folheiam um livro sobre Hieronymus Bosch. Para um deles, a luxúria veio da palavra francesa “luxe,” que associava a mulheres nuas sensuais com casacos de pele, as chamas do inferno e diamantes falsos.
Os Sete Pecados Capitais
Assistant Director
Seven directors each dramatize one of the seven deadly sins in a short film. In "Anger," a domestic argument over a fly in the Sunday soup escalates into nuclear war. In "Sloth," a movie star would rather pay someone to tie his shoe than bend over to do it himself, and he can't be bothered to accept a starlet's sexual favors. In "Gluttony," a peasant family on its way to the funeral of a relative who died from indigestion stops regularly to eat and drink en route, arriving in time to eat some more. In "Greed," a high-class prostitute refunds the price of a cadet's lottery ticket. In "Pride," an unfaithful wife finds reason to reform. And so on through lust and envy.
