Documentary
Film Synopsis
Nastasjia, the daughter of filmmaker Frédéric Sojcher, is only
ten years old but she is adamant about what she wants to be when she grows
up: an actress. She listens attentively as several prominent thespians
of the stage and screen offer her some useful advice on how to become an
actor. She is indeed lucky - it is a distinguished ensemble that her
father manages to find for her, one that includes Michael Lonsdale, Patrick
Chesnais, Denis Podalydès, François Morel, Philippe Torreton
and Jacques Weber. Just what is an actor? Just how do you
create a character and learn your lines? Acting is a craft like any
others, one that can only be mastered with hard work and commitment.
If only Nastasjia can put into practice the advice she is given she will
surely be a great actress, one day...

The very best American film comedies
American film comedy had its heyday in the 1920s and '30s, but it remains an important genre and has given American cinema some of its enduring classics.
From Jean Renoir to François Truffaut, French cinema has no shortage of truly great filmmakers, each bringing a unique approach to the art of filmmaking.
It was American film noir and pulp fiction that kick-started the craze for thrillers in 1950s France and made it one of the most popular and enduring genres.
In his letters to his friends and family, Franz Kafka gives us a rich self-portrait that is surprisingly upbeat, nor the angst-ridden soul we might expect.
