2025 · ★ 6.3
In the 1960s, the suburbs were meant to be modern havens for newcomers from rural France, Portugal, Spain, North Africa, and Africa, helping rebuild post-war France.

The Circus
2010 · ★ 7
In the vestibule of a hospital room, a young boy waits to see his dying mother. The clamor and spiralling movements of bodies around him intensify, forming a grotesque circus—a cacophonous circle that pushes the child back, depriving him of one final touch of his mother's hand. Using rotoscoped drawings suggestive of charcoal sketches, as well as 3D and object animation techniques, The Circus compels viewing with its unsettling realism. Colour is employed metaphorically to subtly express the promise and the memory of maternal affection. Nicolas Brault's highly personal film, suffused with poetic modesty, casts a poignantly sincere gaze on the heartbreak of a child facing the fearful, mysterious experience of his mother's death.

2025
In a fading seaside city, a forgotten notebook becomes the unlikely thread connecting two lives. One, burdened by the weight of their memories, fills its pages with raw emotions about lost time and fractured dreams before discarding it. The other, driven by curiosity, discovers the notebook and sets out on a journey to trace the stories it holds. Through its pages, a haunting reminder echoes: “If the whole world forget, never forget. If the whole world forgive, never forgive. Gone, but never forgotten.” As their paths unknowingly cross in shared spaces, both must confront whether to remain anchored in their histories or let go and move forward. A poetic exploration of memory, loss, and renewal, “If We Ever Forgot” asks: can we ever truly leave the past behind?
