- At the age of 20, Patti Smith arrives in New York and upsets the codes of rock, poetry, and genre. She has become a living legend without ever leaving the sidelines. A poet, actress, and musician. Also militant. An artist with a thousand lives, now 74 years old. The documentary follows the course of Patti Smith's life. Childhood first, and the artist who says: "I wanted to be someone special. I felt distant. Not just from other children, I felt far from the whole world. I spent my childhood in think I was an alien.

- The two decades following the Russian revolution are marked by a gang of young people who profoundly influenced Russian Cinema. This artistic revolution was led by directors, actors, technicians and poets. They are the characters and voices of our film. The Soviet Actress, Ada Voistik, and its camrades tell us the story of this unique period, through the images of soviet fic-tional works produced between 1917 and 1934. We can thus catch a glimpse of their fight for a new society, where creative freedom was of utmost im-portance. A utopia which will be brought down by an authoritarian power impacting cinema as much as the rest of society.
- "To show how the people who consort with oil live, the way in which they work, of which they take advantage or of which they suffer from this natural blessing of their ground. Oil has its place in the financial pages of our newspapers, and seldom the people who live in the shade of the large machine to produce energy. When the journalist Serge Enderlin and the photograph Paolo Woods # whose trip is responsible for this film # had achieved their journey and brought back their work. It seemed obvious to me that their subject # oil # was at the center of the beam of preoccupations of today. Oil fascinates as much as it disgusts. Probably because behind it, numerous themes are outlined and this agitates our society: war in Iraq, misery, fortune, ecology, pollution... The film enters upon these themes, putting the people who live near black gold on the foreground."
- For more than a year now, Béatrice Soulé has been filming the progress of "The Battle of Little Big Horn", Ousmane Sow's new sculpture. Just as she filmed the rebirth of the four Indian chiefs who triumphed over General Custer's Seventh Cavalry, she also filmed the materials and the tiles of the house Sow recently had built in Dakar. This house, which he considers a work in its own right, takes the symbolic form of a sphinx. For the Dakar exhibition, Soulé went from a private to public vision, from close-up to general shot, as she filmed the transport of the works, their installation, and their departure for the "Pont des Arts" in Paris to join the Noubas, Masaïs, Zulus and Peuls.
