C'est quoi la vie ?
François Dupeyron
Éric Caravaca, Jacques Dufilho
In this drama, three generations of the same family work together on a farm in rural France. Elderly Noel takes pride in having worked this land nearly all his life. His son Marc now carries most of the responsibilities of the farm (as well as the debts), and he's starting to buckle under the strain. And Marc's son Nicolas hasn't decided what to do with his life; he has little interest in farming, but he isn't sure where his real talents lie. One day, after helping his cows give birth to new calves, Marc gets word that he must destroy all his cattle to prevent the spread of Mad Cow Disease. This proves the last straw for Marc, and he commits suicide. Noel doesn't handle his son's death well and ends up in a retirement home, while Marc's wife gets a job as a cashier and Nicolas looks for work (with little success) while searching for a beautiful and mysterious woman to whom he gave a ride.

There is Patrick, her husband who has been unemployed for ages but who is kind despite appearances and their friend Jaco who is having a hard time. His wife and daughters hate him for not keeping up on the mortgage repayments. Last but not least is Papa Carlossa who believes that Franco still rules Spain and fantasizes about bumping him off.

La Mort d'Auguste
Denis Malleval
Bruno Solo, Antoine Duléry
Перу известного французского писателя Жоржа Сименона (1903 - 1989) принадлежат не только книги о комиссаре Мегрэ, но и так называемые "трудные" романы, в которых, как правило, высвечивается судьба человека, вырванного из привычных социальных связей, отброшенного в бездну собственных страхов и неврозов, поставленного один на один со своей бедой. Роман Сименона "Кончина Огюста" относится к жанру социально-психологического. В этот жанр автором было внесено много своего, оригинального, не похожего на то, что писали его современники. После внезапной кончины хозяина ресторана "У Овернца" 78-летнего мсье Огюста Матюра, не оставившего завещания, встал вопрос о его наследстве...
