Poster for SMUCKERS

2024 · ★ 0.0 (0)

SMUCKERS, the documentary, follows both the narrative being told throughout the song and the making of it, while also exploring the meaning behind art and intentions. SMUCKERS, though about many things, is to me an expression of the importance of making art, or doing something, for the enjoyment of the process and the love for the work. The song “SMUCKERS” is so unconventional in manner and reasoning but that’s part of what makes it so relevant and great. I hope to carry this truth into my documentary as the art, and the love it therefore speaks for itself.

Poster for Franco Mella

2018 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Franco Mella is a devoted figure whose life bridges Catholicism and Communism. He has journeyed through Asia, lived simply, and fought for social justice, notably within Hong Kong's protest history as depicted in "Ordinary Heroes" (1999). Mella's path weaves through religious and revolutionary movements, from church beginnings to Communist activism and the Handover, always driven by his missionary spirit and communist ideals. For four decades, he has steadfastly championed the oppressed, undeterred by shifting politics, expressing solidarity through music and protest, and remaining a symbol of wisdom and resilience for the people of Hong Kong.

Poster for Dilution

2025 · ★ 6.0 (2)

Dilution is an experimental short film that explores the transit between resistance and (di)ssolution, between holding and releasing and a path towards obsessive repetition. They are layers, exposed pores, matter that oscillates between remaining or disappearing. The sound is not a background, but a puncture: friction, tearing, water that drags what still persists. A sensorial testimony of what refuses to vanish completely.

Poster for Retour vers le futur : Voyage dans le temps, American Dream & rock'n'roll

2022 · ★ 8.5 (6)

The script of "Back to the Future" was one of the most refused of Hollywood: more than forty times. No producer believed in this project of Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale. Steven Spielberg imposed the film on Universal Studios, with Gale signing the script and Zemeckis directing. The director of "Jaws" will not regret it. In 1985, "Back to the Future" pulverized the box office and became a worldwide success, reinforced by two sequels in 1989 and 1990. Decade after decade, the popularity of this trilogy does not falter. Why this longevity while so many blockbusters sink into oblivion?fre
