Comments
Shooting Stars
For all the films about the world of cinema (you know who you are...)
La Belle et la Bête
For the light fantastic (and to avoid having to choose just one Jacques Demy..)
La ROSIÈRE DE PESSAC
For the recording of change and for the cinema of seriality... (vive la Rosière)
Riddles of the Sphinx
For the 360 pans and critical intelligence (and for all the films made by couples)....
Beyrouth, ma ville
For a cinema without fear and without borders (and the unforgettable Beirut trilogy)...
Eleven Miles
For all the road movies and for the love of music...
Solar Flare Arkestral Marching Band
For films made with nothing but warmth, wit, and a deep sense of history...
Balikbayan #1 Memories of Overdevelopment Redux III
For all the filmmakers who never give up...
Luz obscura
For a cinema of memory and formal rigour...
Chez Jolie Coiffure
For a cinema of friendship and the everyday...
Further remarks
With a little imagination, all my missing films can be deduced from the above list...
