- The film consists largely of a series of interviews with female filmmakers from several different countries and filmmaking eras. Some, such as Agnès Varda and Catherine Breillat (both from France), have been making films for decades in a conscious effort to provide an alternative to the male filmmaking model; others, such as Moufida Tlatli (Tunisia) and Carine Adler (England), are relative newcomers to directing, and their approaches seem more personal and less political. The film as a whole manages to cover some important topics in the feminist debate about film -- how does one construct a female gaze, how can one film nude bodies without objectifying the actors (of either sex), what constitutes a strong female role -- while also making it clear that "women's film" comprises as many different approaches to filmmaking as there are female filmmakers.

- In Cannes, from the top of the stairs of the Palais du Festival, Gilles Jacob has seen the film world come to him for more than 30 years. To the impassioned spectator of the whole world's cinema. Gilles Jacob owes his position as the president of the world's greatest film festival above all to his love of the cinema, which he has always cultivated just as one cultivates one's garden. The hazards of life have also added another string to his bow: the management skills which have enabled him to determine the trajectory - in the extremely fragile balance between cinema as an art and as an industry - of a Festival which brings together the greatest directors of the 7th Art, alongside the largest film market in the world. His story will be reconstituted through a stroll taken by Gilles Jacob along the Croisette in Cannes before the 2009 festival. Punctuated by film clips, we will find the key scenes of his life, his meetings with stars (such as Sharon Stone, Clint Eastwood) and film directors of yesterday (Fellini, Truffaut) and today (Tarentino, Almodovar, Jane Campion, Lars Von Trier). We will relive his most moving moments (for example when the 29 directors awarded the Palme d'Or gathered together for the fiftieth anniversary of the Festival). For Gilles Jacob is also a visionary, and believes in the future of the 7th Art. He continues to prove it today, in each moment of his life.
- This documentary on the life of Lino Miccichè, a leading Italian intellectual, film critic and historian, columnist and cultural organizer is narrated from the personal point of view of his son, the director Francesco Miccichè. Its account of Lino Miccichès intense life, enriched with previously unpublished Rai archive material, effectively traces the full span of Italian cinema from the 1950s until the first decade of this century, using this narrative to reflect on a whole generation of fathers and what they left to their sons. Making a film about ones own father is a journey. Mine began when he was still alive and possibly isnt yet entirely finished. Nearly ten years after his death, it seemed important to me to reflect on a life that gave and did so much for cinema. My father had a clear vision of the world in his head and tried to improve the world to make it correspond with that vision. At heart, the questions posed by Lino Miccichès generation are not that different from our own. The point is, however, that their answers, although very clear, were not enough to change the world. What about our own?
