Edgar Morin, journal d'une vie
Jean-Michel Djian
A philosopher of complexity, Edgar Morin has renewed the figure of the intellectual. Born Edgar Nahoum in Paris in 1921, he joined the Communist Resistance in 1942, where he adopted the pseudonym Morin, which he never abandoned. Author of about a hundred books, doctor "honoris causa" of about forty universities in the world, he never stopped promoting human brotherhood.

Culture, une affaire d'État
Joël Calmettes, Jean-Michel Djian
Culture ... an affair of state, it is a historical novel journey to the heart of the Fifth Republic Cultural Affairs of France. Malraux, first holder of the ministerial office in 1959, to Catherine Tasca, in 2002, the film tells the scenes of major events during the cultural policy of the state: the case Langlois around the Cinematheque Landowski case-Boulez on the reform of music, the construction of Beaubourg, the Louvre, the conditions under which the music festival has been decided or that the cultural exception publicized. From archives, interviews or testimony, it is a political reading of unexpected contemporary artistic life which is at issue here.
