French Waves French Waves

Julian Starke / France / 2018 / 65 min / French

In this documentary, the stories of iconic French and international musicians portray the history of French electronic music as seen by the young generation. The film explores the American roots of the movement, illegal early rave parties and the phenomenon that is “French house”, which played an important role in the establishment of electronic music across the world. Above all, it shows how the most recent wave of French artists adopted this heritage as their own.

The film features Laurent Garnier, Agoria, Bob Sinclair, Carl Craig, Bambounou, David Blot, Fakear, Fred Agostini, French Fries, Jacques, Jean-Michel Jarre, Jerôme Viger Kohler, Juan Atkins, Manu Casana, Pedro Winter, Philippe Zdar, Rone, Superpoze and Terry Hunter.

Sex, Love, and Dreams–not necessarily in that order–are the chapters in the trilogy exploring contemporary relationships, set in modern-day Oslo. In Love, the director invites us to reflect on our desires and expectations regarding sexuality, relationships, and intimacy.

Fiume o morte! Fiume o morte!

On 12 September 1919, a troop of some three hundred soldiers under the leadership of the flamboyant war-loving Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio swooped into the Northern-Adriatic port town of Fiume, now Rijeka, wanting to annex the city to Italy. Over the course of the next 16 months, during what is regarded as one of the most bizarre militant sieges of all time his official photography team captured over 10,000 images. A century later, Igor Bezinović orchestrates a direct-action history lesson focused on the siege and its modern-day implications.
