Known For
Laval, le collaborateur
Several times president of the Council, at the end of the 1930s Pierre Laval became one of Marshal Pétain's strongmen, a loyal collaborator for the Germans. Rounding-up Jews, forced labour, tracking the French resistance..., he served Hitler faithfully to the end. When France was liberated, he was tried, condemned, shot.
Maigret
The pragmatic, reserved and refined Maigret investigates murders in his singular unhurried manner and inevitably discovers the truth.
Marie's Story
Marie Heurtin is born both blind and deaf. Sister Marguerette wins her trust and teaches her how to express herself.
The Little Murders of Agatha Christie
French adaptations of the stories by Agatha Christie.
A Heart in Winter
Beautiful violin virtuoso Camille has two obsessions: the music of Ravel, and a friend of her husband's who crafts violins. But his heart seems to be as cold as her playing is passionate.
Tell No One
A man receives a mysterious email appearing to be from his wife, who was murdered years earlier. As he frantically tries to find out whether she's alive, he finds himself being implicated in her death.
Un petit parisien
Benji's father has returned from captivity, and his mother is sick and later dies. Through Benji's eyes we see a changing country and a father who cares less about his deceased wife, making some rather unhappy choices in the process.
The Taste of Others
Unpolished and ultra-pragmatic industrialist Jean-Jacques Castella reluctantly attends Racine's tragedy "Berenice" in order to see his niece play a bit part. He is taken with the play's strangely familiar-looking leading lady Clara Devaux. During the course of the show, Castella soon remembers that he once hired and then promptly fired the actress as an English language tutor. He immediately goes out and signs up for language lessons. Thinking that he is nothing but an ill-tempered philistine with bad taste, Clara rejects him until Castella charms her off her feet.
Black Butterflies
Low on inspiration for his second book, a gloomy novelist agrees to write a memoir for a dying man — and swiftly becomes part of his bloodstained past.
Me, Myself and Mum
How to become a man when your mother and your closed circle have decided otherwise? This is the challenge Guillaume took up. The film recounts Guillaume's tragicomic battle from the young age of eight, as he adopts the role of a girl then of a homosexual... until, aged 30, he meets the woman who, after his mother, will become the other woman in his life. Beyond this story of a heterosexual coming-out, the film tells the tale of an actor who never stopped loving women, maybe even a little too much.
