A masterpiece of psychological analysis and a vivid example of a very typical and common psychological disorder, especially among politicians.

The Phoenician Scheme

The film is inspired by the book by Martin Amis with the same name. It tells the story of the commandant of Auschwitz, Rudolf H ss, and his wife Hedwig, who want to build a happy life in a house next to the horrors that took place on the other side, in the extermination camp.

Anatomie d'Une Chute

“Anatomie d’une chute” is a tense courtroom drama, the kind that American cinema used to be expert at. It is actually less an anatomy of a fall and more an anatomy of a marriage that is being dissected before our eyes.

Sentimental Value

A house is much more than an inanimate thing. In the space within it, lives unfold, memories are stored, etched into. Its walls in an invisible ink only visible to those who inhabit it. Like webs, relationships develop within them, children grow up and attach meaning to objects, love is built and crumbles apart.
