After La Panthère des neiges (The Velvet Queen), Vincent Munier invites us into the heart of the Vosges forests. It was here that he learned everything from his father Michel, a naturalist who spent his life observing the woods. Now it is time for them to pass on this knowledge to Simon, Vincent’s son. Three perspectives, three generations, one shared fascination with wildlife. We will discover with them deer, rare birds, foxes, and lynx… and sometimes, the beating wings of a legendary animal:the capercaillie.

After years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom, the Camp Miasma slasher franchise is handed over to an enthusiastic young director for resurrection.

L’espace à la fois bienveillant et tumultueux d’une garderie est le point d’ancrage de cette exploration libre sur la petite enfance. Construit en suivant progressivement l’évolution des âges à l’écran, le film nous entraine dans la bulle de différents enfants âgés de 1 à 5 ans, à cette étape où la conscience passe tranquillement du « Je » au « Nous ». À travers ces moments rarement filmés, la nature humaine s’installe progressivement. Jardin d’enfants est le 4ième film d’une série sur les étapes marquantes de la vie.

The nurturing yet chaotic environment of a daycare center serves as the anchor for this free-flowing exploration of early childhood. Structured to progressively follow the ages on screen, the film draws us into the world of different children aged 1 to 5, at that stage where consciousness gently shifts from “I” to “We.” Through these rarely filmed moments, human nature gradually takes shape. Kindergarten is the fourth film in a series about the defining stages of life.
Directed By: Shatara Michelle Ford
With their sophomore feature, Shatara Michelle Ford (TEST PATTERN) puts their singular stamp on the American road movie. After an unceremonious layoff, Z (Denée Benton, “The Gilded Age”) embarks on a trip across the Midwestern United States in search of a friend that has seemingly disappeared off the grid. Travelling with her two closest friends, these three queer black femmes find their priorities tested as shapeshifting threats in each city expose (inter)personal and ideological fractures. Tender and expansive, Ford has created an ode to chosen family and the radical act of claiming space to dream – and exist – beyond the systems of an increasingly fraught country.

Inspired by Tiziano Scarpa’s novel Stabat Mater, the screenplay recounts the story of Cecilia, a 20-year-old orphan confined since childhood to the Orphelinat della Pietà. Only marriage would allow her to leave Venice’s largest orphanage.
