- DirectorJean-Michel VecchietStarsNaomi CampbellAstrid LindberghHelga PolzinPETER LINDBERGH - WOMEN'S STORIES portrays one of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. Sisters, friends, wives and collaborators carry the plot of the film, go back to the origins of his life and his unique work - to figure out what we will never be able to fully understand: Why, and how, does one become an artist? And where does this creative force come from that resists all analysis? Top models, actresses and icons, all these women magnified by his camera for nearly forty years, join the ones in the background to shine a light on the life and artistic evolution of Peter Lindbergh.

For the first time, it will be a matter of understanding how Norma Jeane Baker created the iconic Marilyn Monroe. Because Marilyn was not born Marilyn, she became her.
- DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsJames BaldwinWilliam F. BuckleyTruman CapoteA feature-length documentary starring Fran Lebowitz, a writer known for her unique take on modern life.

- DirectorClaude ChabrolStarsMichel BouquetBrian CoxMaquisard AlfonsoThis movie is only made of archive pictures: the official newsreels that were broadcasted on French movie screens during 1940 and 1944 (the Occupation). Those newsreels were controlled by the government of Vichy, which collaborated with the Nazis, so most of them are propaganda. Their purpose is to show what the disinformation was then, and perhaps more generally to evoke the problem of the power of the mass media.
- DirectorClaire SimonA portrait of the people who pass through or take up residence in Paris's Le Bois de Vincennes park.
