The main theme of the story is about making difficult choices – choices that can’t necessarily be categorized as good or bad. Travis did a great job of making that evident in every scene. The emotion and humanity of it resonated with me – I was […]
An interview with Jules Comes, director of Saint Hubert How did you work on image and light ? Saint Hubert was meant to be a cinematographic experience from the first beginning.

An interview with Esther Mysius and Camille Rouaud, directors of Gueule d’Isère What made you want to set the film in a rural area? The mix of mountains, forests, and mining heaps got our attention. The Plateau Matheysin has seen deep transformation throughout its history and continues to change. The coal mines closed in the early 2000’s, and this led to a landscape […]
