The film features many interviews with French communist leaders, students, and sociologists. The Prague Spring of 1968 is featured, with footage of a Fidel Castro speech in which he explains his political support for the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia while questioning the legality of the action. Other sections deal with the rise of Salvador Allende, Minamata poisoning in Japan, and the Watergate Scandal in the US. There are many subtle references to cats throughout the film, as well as brief shots of raccoons., 1h56

Le film relate la grève dans l'usine de textiles Rhodiacéta de Besançon, en mars 1967, au travers des témoignages des ouvriers sur leurs conditions de travail et motivations. Cette grève a pris un aspect particulier de par l'assimilation du plan culturel du plan social : les revendications ne tournent plus seulement autour de l'entreprise (salaires ou sécurité de l’emploi), mais aussi sur le mode de vie que la société imposait notamment à la classe ouvrière. Les ouvriers grévistes qui occupent l'usine ont à leur disposition du matériel pour filmer les événements, grâce à Chris Marker, Jean-Luc Godard ainsi que Bruno Muel. Comme le Mai rampant italien, cette grève est une sorte d'avant-coureur de la vague de fond de mai 68., 30minutes

The film exhibits a series of sculptures, masks and other traditional art from Sub-Saharan Africa. The images are frequently set to music and cut to the music's pace. The narrator focuses on the emotional qualities of the objects, and discusses the perception of African sculptures from a historical and contemporary European perspective. Only occasionally does the film provide the geographical origin, time period or other contextual information about the objects. The idea of a dead statue is explained as a statue which has lost its original significance and become reduced to a museum object, similarly to a dead person who can be found in history books. Interweaved with the objects are a few scenes of Africans performing traditional music and dances, as well as the death of a disemboweled gorilla., 28minutes

A man (Davos Hanich) is a prisoner in the aftermath of World War III in post-apocalyptic Paris where survivors live underground in the Palais de Chaillot galleries. Scientists research time travel, hoping to send test subjects to different time periods "to call past and future to the rescue of the present". They have difficulty finding subjects who can mentally withstand the shock of time travel. The scientists eventually settle upon the prisoner; his key to the past is a vague but obsessive memory from his pre-war childhood of a woman (Hélène Chatelain) he had seen on the observation platform ("the jetty") at Orly Airport shortly before witnessing a startling incident there. He had not understood exactly what happened but knew he had seen a man die., 1h11

Political filmsEn 1988, la jeunesse sénégalaise descend dans la rue pour contester la réélection du président Abdou Diouf. Ces manifestations ont été les premiers signes d’une rupture générationnelle. C’est dans ce contexte qu’est né le mouvement « Boul Fallé », qui signifie « se foutre de tout et tracer sa route ». Dès le départ, Boul Fallé va se distinguer en s’exprimant dans la musique hip-hop et dans la lutte avec frappe. La réalisatrice Rama Thiaw sans faire l’historique de ce mouvement cherche à en restituer l’énergie. Des studios d’enregistrement de la banlieue de Pikine aux arènes de sable, sa caméra nous entraîne dans le rythme de ceux qui ont choisi de redevenir ce qu’ils sont : de nobles guerriers., 2h18
