2021Les vamps fantastiques
Jean-Pierre Bouyxou, Jean-Yves Bochet
Nicole Caligaris, Catherine Binet
Ever since the goddesses, gorgons and other sirens of ancient mythology, the strangest creatures, sometimes charming, sometimes terrifying, have continued to haunt our imagination. This documentary shows the disturbing fascination they exert on both filmmakers and the public and rehabilitates an underappreciated continent: the great female icons of horror and wonder in cinema.

One of four Hanoun films that take their titles from the seasons of the year, SPRING tells two parallel stories: a man, fleeing the forces of order, takes refuge in the forest, while a young girl living with her grandmother in a nearby village approaches the threshold of adolescence, and begins to discover both the world and herself. - Anthology Film Archive

Les Jeux de la Comtesse Dolingen de Gratz

Michael Lonsdale, Carol Kane
This complex and puzzling French drama walks the fine wavering line between the fictional and the very real as it tells the tale of a strangely erotic event in the life of a little girl and the musings of a schizophrenic woman. Also involved is an enigmatic spouse who prepares a surprise for a burglar.
