The film is about the difficult 40-year relationship between Ushio and Noriko Shinohara, Japanese-born husband and wife artists who live in New York. Ushio Shinohara is a small player in the contemporary art world, known for painting with a pair of paint-soaked boxing gloves. Their family has struggled financially for many years. Noriko, who is more than 20 years younger than Ushio, set aside her own career to raise their son Alex and serve as Ushio’s unpaid assistant, receptionist and chef. Noriko has also worked on her own art, a character she created named Cutie. Cutie's story is told in a comic-book narrative, where she comes to New York and falls for a broke older artist named Bullie. By the end of the movie, Ushio has begun to recognize that he’s not the only artist in the family. They hold a joint art opening at a SoHo gallery.

Dolce Vita Africana is a documentary about the internationally renowned Malian photographer Malick Sidibé, whose iconic images from the late 1950s through the 70s captured the carefree spirit of his generation asserting their freedom after independence and up until an Islamic coup ushered in years of military dictatorship. The filmmaker travels to Malick Sidibé's studio in Bamako, Mali, to witness the artist at work and meet many of the subjects of his earlier photographs, whose personal stories also tell the history of Mali.

Andy Warhol fut l’un des artistes les plus importants – sinon le plus important – de la deuxième moitié du XXe siècle. Ce documentaire captivant et souvent émouvant, brosse un portrait de ce personnage aussi génial que décrié, qui sut capter les turbulences d’une époque marquée par le changement. Ce fi lm est le premier à exploiter les immenses archives du musée Andy Warhol de Pittsburgh.À travers quantité d’images et de séquences inédites complétées d’interviews, il explore la vie et l’œuvre de celui qui deviendra le pape du Pop Art – depuis son enfance solitaire et sa formation à Pittsburgh – jusqu’à l’explosion de sa carrière à New York et sa mort prématurée 1987.

Construit autour de nombreuses archives souvent inédites, de caricatures originales de Rita Mercedes (spécialiste de caricatures d’écrivain), de lectures de textes de Camus et Sartre, le film s’écarte des chemins balisés du documentaire-fiction habituel et prend une forme originale qui renouvelle le genre, ce qui n’a pas manqué d’être souligné par la presse [1] : les personnages de Camus et de Sartre sont évoqués par des ombres qui évoluent dans des décors d’époque...
