- Notes:
- In the Greek mythology, Artémis is known as the goddess of the night, the huntress, the goddess of fruitfulness, the Lady of the beasts, the woodland goddess, the guardian of the frontiers... In the movie of Valérie Morignat, she is an ambiguous apparition, constantly emerging from the music of Costin Miereanu as an allegory of desire.

- Notes:
- Two bodies, or rather, two women hiding in the darkness. Sometimes they light each other up, sometimes they play hide and seek in the half-light. Both fireflies and butterflies, they start surprising nights choreographies that we only see in fragments. At the end their bodies get closer, in the dark, hesitating, sometimes backwards during a lively and retained dance. Yes, that night she danced, but did they really meet? The real film still has to be done.

- Notes:
- A letter no one can read, a character whose face cannot be seen, a room without dimensions…remnants of a narrative that have lost their way, tenuously connected with each other by the flashes between the shots.

- Notes:
- K (Désert) is the forth part of a series on Kabylia, including a documentary and a feature film. K (Désert) interrogates the fragmentation of a culture (Berber culture) through the Algerian desert populations through the use of collage.

- F.I.R.T 119 is a tribute to the Earth's Southmost railway in Argentina. The austere image, under the strong impulse of the piano score, captures the intensity of sooty coal trains.
