Кто бы мог подумать, что министр Венсан окажется на улице? Услуги, оказанные Венсаном нации, весьма значимы. В молодости он был биологом и изобрел незаметное, но эффективное оружие массового уничтожения: генетически модифицированных насекомых — вызывающих судороги блох и ос-убийц. В тридцать лет он уже был членом Академии наук. Чтобы нейтрализовать его талант изобретателя, его назначают министром сельского хозяйства. Он превращается в старого зануду, ему уже за шестьдесят, и он почивает на лаврах. Естественно, у него есть враги, которые терпеливо роют ему могилу. Всё начинается с хорошо продуманных акций: выкриков, протестов, яростных выступлений, неприкаянных мычащих коров, овец и уток, навоза, разбросанного по бульварам, тракторов...

Провинциальному провансальскому отцу семейства Венсану, художнику в душе, смертельно надоело каждый день одно и то же. Для него каждое утро понедельника начинается с одного и того же ритуала, затем монотонная работа на химическом заводе. Ни детям, ни жене он давно не нужен, друзей нет, соседи - завистники. И однажды Венсан решает посмотреть мир и отправляется в Венецию. Возможно, там он найдёт то, чего ему не хватало...

A little girl's witness to womanhood.

You're a provincial kid in Paris and suddenly you're the center of attention: Movie stars, famous directors and sexy women are doting on you because they all think you're the son of their long-dead legendary friend. You never knew your dad, but the facts of this famous guy's life suggest that he might have fathered you. Your mom tells you nothing. All the fuss makes you uncomfortable at first but soon you find it's rather fun to be the son of the famous Gascogne. And in the midst of it all you fall in love. It is, after all, springtime in Paris.

Rose was a brilliant student of Fine Arts. Then, she gave up everything for a "beautiful marriage". Now in her thirties, she is experiencing more and more difficulties in her life, which is both materially overprotected and difficult with her three children and an increasingly absent husband. She breaks down, cracks up and tries to imagine how she could broach the subject with her husband before it's too late. To her great amazement, it was Didier who, one evening before going to visit friends, announced that he was leaving and that he had already rented a small studio. After the shock, Rose goes to her father, an old Spanish anarchist, who gives her back the taste for values she thought she had lost.

В большом поместье живут две пожилые дамы и служанка. Замок возжелали приобрести капиталисты, которые готовы ждать хоть пятьдесят лет, прежде чем в него вселиться. Старушки сопротивляются, не хотят им уступить. Неожиданно одна из сестер умирает, и поместье переходит к наследникам, после чего, естественно, замок тут же, без сожаления, переходит в руки прагматиков, ничего с ним общего не имеющих.

A man travels through time and space in search of the woman with the violoncello.

A diverse group of guests gather in a small hotel in Paris to contemplate the state of their lives in this pretentious drama. Joseph Goldman (Fernando Rey) is a washed-up Hollywood actor making a living in the dinner-theater circuit. Accompanied by his wife Sarah (Carole Regnier), Goldman meets Frederique (Berangere Bonvoisin), who is hiding from her former lover. French financier Arthur (Fabrice Luchini) hopes to get into the film industry and bends the ear of a British director (Michael Medwin). The talkative film has little action, and none of the characters evoke much interest or resolve their dilemma.

A man's bathroom routine triggers a miraculous vision in a nearby church.

An office manager smokes a cigarette all the way to the filter without ashing

A worker daydreams while in the bathroom

Life flashes before a soldier's eyes in his moment of death

Картина XIX века и китайский фарфор XVIII века попадают в водоворот интриг, афер, законных и не очень манипуляций дюжины персонажей из самых разных слоев общества от воришек и проституток до звезд панк-рока и террористических группировок с неясными целями и задачами.

В сибирской глухомани, среди тайги и болот, живут в небольшом селе Елань две семьи, издавна враждующие меж собой: «кулаки» Соломины и бедняки Устюжанины. И не ведают они до поры, что суждено им породниться, что вопреки всем ветрам истории судьба будет сталкивать их снова и снова, и в ненависти, и в любви; не ведают, какие кровавые, трагические события ждут их впереди.

In her suburban house, Madame Vaussart brings together a group of solitaries every Wednesday. Everyone tries to forget their problems, their complexes, their sadness. Between Mr. Michel, very shy, Mrs. Lebris, a former actress, a former colonial soldier and a few others, a project was soon born. They arm themselves and organize a manhunt from which, voluntarily, no one will come out alive.

A factory siren sounds, workers punch in, the machinery starts... Aubier makes use of a series of successive pictures to portray the series of events that completes a cycle.

Alain Cluny is Balthazar, a bumbling middle-aged intellectual who spouts off from time to time about leftist causes, usually to his current girlfriend. Then Edwarda (Bernadette Lafont), who is active in the political underground, comes into his life. From that point on, he begins to act on his beliefs. Edwarda's underground political action group stages a little drama to test Balthazar's commitment and reliability, putting him through an interrogation by what appear to him to be French secret police. Having passed this test, he is given a real assignment. This film is a comedy with elements of satire, and it explores the humor to be found in left-wing pretentiousness of all kinds. - Rovi

“FUN AND GAMES (FOR EVERYONE): a pitch black and milky white film shot during one of Olivier Mosset's exhibition openings. A psychedelic game of improvisation joins the Zanzibar group with Salvador Dalí, Barbet Schroeder and Jean Mascolo... the solarized image reminiscent of thick strokes of a paintbrush.” - Philippe Azoury

A young student visits the home of a friend who has all the good looks, women and luck. Every day, through binoculars from his friend's window, he sees a young girl in front of her home. Although attractive, the woman's face has been badly scarred. He finds out her phone number and the two engage in pleasant conversation. He gets up enough nerve to ask to meet her in person, but the socially inept young man becomes paralyzed with fear. He again summons the courage to meet with her before he is plagued with fear once again.

Фердинанд и нанятая присматривать за его ребенком приходящая няня, Карина, сбегают из дома и едут к морю на угнанном автомобиле, набитом крадеными деньгами… Он оставляет позади богатую жену, а она — неприятности, связанные с бандитами.
