Cinémathèque : Les Lutins du Court-Métrage

In Beauty and the Beat Rosalba suffers from a rare disorder — whenever she hears music, she has an irrepressible urge to move and twitch. (Yann Le Quellec, 2012, 32 minutes). ABCDEFGHIJKLM. . . is a fleeting inventory of Japanese people and places, closing with a few unforgettable faces (Valérie Mréjen and Bertrand Schefer, 2011, 6 minutes). La Source probes a collection of beautiful but previously unknown landscape and ethnographic photographs from early twentieth-century Brittany (Mirabelle Fréville, 2012, 36 minutes); Jean-Luc Persécuté, adapted from French-Swiss writer Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz’s 1909 allegorical tale, is a haunting and near-wordless fable about a tragic love affair, shot in the majestic setting of the French Pyrénées (Emmanuel Laborie, 2010, 45 minutes). Shown as part of Les Lutins du Court-Métrage festival organized in association with L’Alliance Française de Washington
