Early morning in Paris, fragments of lives... A man comes home early from celebrating the millennium; a young woman dies of an overdose; two people meet and have sex; a man has a disturbing erotic experience in the Metro... Vincent Dieutre opens the exploration of his Paris district, Bonne Nouvelle, with a 360° pan shot. Told in three voices, with Eva Truffaut and Bojena Horackova, these micro-stories of flirting and drugs serve as fictional parables. The image of an unmade bed is the starting point from which Dieutre sets out in search of lost time and territories.

Following the screening of this film, Vincent Dieutre’s festival talk will take place at Pera Museum at 17.00.

Between Impressionism and Orientalism

Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century.
