Trivia:

Was the very first director to ever cast Gérard Depardieu, in 1965. The film, called "Christmas Carole" (revolving around Carole, a young comics writer), was never completed, due to lack of money. Around 8 minutes have been shot, featuring Depardieu, and shown at the French Cinematheque at the end of the 90s. See more trivia »

Personal Quote:

I don't believe in inspiration that arrives like a bolt from the blue - if it doesn't also arise from your body and your immediate lived experience. That's why I always refer to 'subjective documentary'. It seems to me that the more motivated I am by what I film, the more objectively I film. See more »
