5 WESTERN Valeska GRISEBACH A group of German workers settles in a hard construction site in the confines of the Bulgarian lands.

6 REDOUBTABLE Michel HAZANAVICIUS Paris, Jean Luc Godard, the most prestigious filmmaker of his generation, films La Chinoise with the woman he loves, Anne Wiazemsky, twenty years younger than him. They feel happy, in love, seductive. They get married. But the reception of the film after its release causes doubt to set around Jean Luc. The events of May '68 will intensify this process and his crisis will transform him deeply, from star filmmaker to anti-system Maoist artist, as misunderstood as incomprehensible.
