La Transversale

Manhunts

Emblematic movement, the hunt — or the escape, depending on the stand point — is a genre in itself, a deeply cinematographic motif and a possible metaphor of our societies. With this « Transversale » program, the festival proposes in about twenty films a subjective anthology of manhunts.

In the presence of Abel Ferrara, Peter Fleischmann, Jean-Luc Bideau…
