Memories kept from a long trip are the inspiration for a letter to be sent to the future. Alone, away from home and about to complete 30 years-old, a Brazilian woman goes on a journey to Africa. On the letter to her daughter, she describes how she met women who live in perfect harmony with their cultures and times. 'Here Is So Far' is a journal, a road movie and an invitation to all people who trace their own path.

Synchronicity is a sensitive and thought-provoking portrayal of French quantum physicist Francois Martin and his relationship with synchronicity, or meaningful coincidence. The film relates Martin's transformation from hard-core physicist to someone who embraces synchronicity as an enriching gift. It follows him in intriguing encounters with, among others, a French puppeteer, a Tibetan Buddhist monk, and his own aging mother. Martin also meets scientists at the CERN particle accelerator in Switzerland, where he demonstrates the analogy he sees between quantum physics and synchronicity. Martin's gradual unpacking of the underlying interconnectedness between things, is interspersed with reconstructions of two fascinating instances of synchronicity from England and Finland, creating a film which invites viewers to open themselves up to the unexpected, to the delight of synchronicity.

Archaeologist Olivier Weller and his team decided to conduct a dig at one of the locations where Jacques Demy shot several scenes from his film Donkeyskin (Peau d'Âne) : the cabin where Catherine Deneuve hides out, the clearing where Delphine Seyrig welcomes her goddaughter,... Sets and props are long gone but pearl-beads, nails, sequins and other traces are revealed at the first tentative scrapings of the surface.Following that survey, Skin Deep Fairytale tries to approach the magic of film-maker Jacques Demy's work, the charm of Charles Perrault's text, the tale's power of fascination, whose origins go back to oral tradition. Are we researching the story, or is it reserching us? The quest of our film archaeologist goes much farther and deeper that he would have imagined himself.

'Thirty-six years ago, I filmed Soraya and Pascal's wedding in the most famous suburbs of Paris, Aubervilliers. Last year, I wanted to find out what had happened to the couple whose wedding day I had filmed from morning till late at night. A lot has happened both in the life of Soraya and in the city of Aubervilliers. Soraya is now a very pretty woman in her 50s. She has three girls and is a sales agent in a large firm. Extracts of her wedding are shown in the film and the rest is filmed today with a surprising ending.' Michele Rosier
