The Carriers Are Waiting (1999)

Dad is an obsessive type with a short fuse and a long list of curious ideas, and his wife and children must often bear the brunt of his eccentricities. Roger works as a reporter, a job he doesn't like which doesn't pay especially well, either. One day, Roger learns an area business association is sponsoring a contest for a family that can break a world record, with the grand prize being a new car. Suddenly, Roger gets a brainstorm -- if his son can open and shut a door 40,000 times in 24 hours, the car will be theirs. 15-year-old Michel, however, is not at all happy to have been drafted into this new responsibility, especially when dad builds a practice door in the backyard and finds a trainer to teach Michel how to open and close it with greatest efficiency.

Philippe Nahon, de l'acteur fétiche à l'icône (2005)
Since the beginning of the 70s, committed and willing, Philippe Nahon has been exploring the strangest roles and became at the dawn of the 90s, with "Carne", a rising star and a source of inspiration for a generation of young directors such as Gaspar Noé, for whom he has become a favorite actor. At fifty, he has become an emblematic figure for a new generation of filmmakers. Even today, he is still in full rebellion against age and invests in short films and first films of young directors with an enthusiasm still intact. Through the testimonies of his first partners, filmmakers of several generations, relatives and fans, this documentary sketches the portrait of a committed man, an actor unknown to the general public, an icon for film lovers.

Damien and his friends are garbage collectors in a small provincial town. One day, Damien finds a decomposing corpse in the dump where he works, but also a knife that turns out to be his. Because of his personal and social environment (an omnipresent mother, humiliating friends, an unenviable situation) and because he arrives at a moment in his life when he realizes that he is nothing to anyone, Damien wants to prove that he is capable of doing something with his life, of becoming someone, by finding the murderer who is prowling around the dump. In the course of his investigation, he meets Julie, a young divorced woman who is a little lost and who moves in across the street from him. But as his investigations progress, Damien wonders if he is not the killer he is looking for.
