A Life Like Any Other(fr)

Over many years, the director’s father filmed his family life almost obsessively. His daughter’s birth, his son’s first steps, and always Valérie, the young mother. An impressive fund of material which their now grown-up daughter Faustine appropriates to tell quite a different story: that of a woman who sees her role as a mother and its demands take away her freedom step by step.

Slow Ride Home(en)

It's been described as "brave, daring, and courageous" by our friends and "stupid, dangerous, and foolish" by our parents, but we'd like to believe that ‘The Slow Ride Home' is much more than just a crazy idea; it's a microcosm of what we all need a little more time with - slowing things down and challenging yourself to accomplish something that once seemed impossible... like riding scooters across the country in 11 days. This adventurous and often hilarious film documents the story of eight Soldiers of Destiny Scooter Club members as they traverse from the white sand beaches of FL through some of the most beautiful - and sometimes most desolate - pockets of the United States.
