Germaine Dulac’s Illustrated Records

These “illustrated records” from the 1930s are music videos avant la lettre. An endeavour by the Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé (with support by CNC) that recovers a forgotten production by the pioneer of French impressionism, starting to pair, only in 2023, the recordings with the original songs. o   Celles qui s’en font (Germaine Dulac) © 1930 – Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathéo   Ceux qui ne s’en font pas (Germaine Dulac) © 1930 – Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathéo   Un peu de rêve sur le faubourg (Germaine Dulac) © 1930 – Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé The restorations carried out by the Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé in 2023 were based on the original nitrate negatives held in its collections. 4K work carried out at the L’Image Retrouvée laboratory, with the support of the CNC.

An American Chronicle

A film about a film that never existed. In the 1970s, Michelangelo Antonioni wrote a screenplay, entitled Two Telegrams, with the American Rudy Wurlitzer. In the 1980s, Portuguese producer Paulo Branco agreed with the director to make the film in the United States. For various reasons, the film didn’t happen. In this film, the imagination of the two directors picks up on what this unfinished project could have been.
