Synopsis:

***WARNING***Films contain original language audio or silent with English & French subtitles***La Semaine de la Critique is co-publishing a DVD set of short and medium length films. Aiming to seek out new talent, la Semaine has always been particularly interested in short and medium length films, as they often represent the vital first steps in a director's career. By presenting their first shorts, la Semaine de la Critique has discovered such illustrious filmmakers as François Ozon, Gaspar Noé and Andrea Arnold. We believe that the filmmakers you will find on this DVD, who were all selected at the 50th edition of La Semaine de la Critique, are names to be followed and will live up to their film promises in the future.

Alexis Ivanovitch You're My Hero (2011)
Alex and Cerise tenderly love each other. One afternoon, Alex is assaulted in front of Cerise while they are having a drink at the outside tables. Fear prevents him from reacting. Even though this story remains trivial in Cerise's mind, it makes Alex feel really humiliated. Would his pride prevent him from finding the road to happiness?

Blue (2011)
BLUE used to work as a fluffy TV mascot on a children's program but now he is a waiter in an Asian restaurant trying keep his job. He always keeps a smiley face on as he serves food. Some people recognise him from the old days but most people have forgotten him. One day bad news arrives.

Boy (2011)
A 10 year old spends the day with his father and experiences a rite of passage that will forever change him.

Finis Operis (2011)
On a rainy day, an old man is sweating his guts out putting a mysterious device up the ceiling.

Sundays (2011)
Sundays or how mankind faces the passage of time. That free time we are trying to fill at all costs. That same time we look at passing by, with laughter or boredom.

The Inviolability of the Domicile Is Based On The Man Who Appears Wielding An Axe At The Door Of His House (2011)
In the garden of a provincial summer house, a series of operations is carried out, involving a man, a woman and a group of individuals with certain convictions.

Black Moon (2010)
A conceptual 'remake' of Louis Malle's 1975 film, American artist Amie Siegel's Black Moon is set in the post-apocalyptic landscape of foreclosed housing developments. Female revolutionaries traverse the bloody aftermath of war-the uncannily recent ruins of a future that never was.

Permanencias (2011)
From the inside the air is heavier.

Junior (2011)
Justine, nicknamed Junior, age thirteen, spots and a good sense of humor of her own, is a tomboy; slightly misogyne. While we diagnosed her a lightning gastroenteritis, junior's body becomes the theater of a strange metamorphosis.

Hair (2010)
Phillip has started going bald, how long will it be before alopecia takes over? His dermatologist is categorical: only his father can answer that question.
The Palm Lines (2009)
The fragile yet monumental actress Coca Bloos portrays a woman whose life is destroyed in the blink of an eye. Years later, she tells her story in front of the camera. Was her fate already sealed in the lifelines in her hand? In a series of tableaux in bleached-out colors, we see how after her life degenerated after an accident into endless repetition. From the bathroom to the living room, from the sink to the bed, day in, day out.

To Die By Your Side (2011)
A tragicomic romance between two storybook characters ignites between the covers, and on the shelves of famed Parisian bookstore Shakespeare & Company. A stylish stop-motion animation from co-director Spike Jonze.
