On Arte TV, wed june 18th, by Jef Aerosol on May 19, 2008 0:52:56 GMT 1, after the Cans Festival, the Cannes Festival !
The movie "La Copie de Coralie" by Nicolas Engel is in competition at Cannes Festival.
The film is about someone trying to find someone else (i know it doesn't say much, but I won't tell the whole story here !), so stencils of that person are pasted-up everywhere in the city, hence my participation in the movie.
here's the website of the movie :
lacopiedecoralie.poitou-charentes.fr/
and the myspace page :
www.myspace.com/lacopiedecoralie
some photos taken during the shooting :

Some stencils are being pasted-up in Cannes right now, will post some pics in a few days...

The name of the programme is "court circuit". it's usually broadcast after midnight.

On Arte TV, wed june 18th, by Jef Aerosol on May 21, 2008 10:43:49 GMT 1, thanks...
ok, let me explain what the movie is about. It's difficult to sum up as the plot is simple but the interest of the movie is in the details and the way it was shot. Anyway, to put it in a nutshell : A girl (Virginie, played by the excellent Jeanne Cherhal) who works in a photocopy shop has a chat with her boss once and he tells her that he's been in love with a woman (Coralie) he only met very briefly on a train about 30 years earlier and has never heard of since. The only thing he keeps from that girl is an old torn snapshot he took then and that he always has in his wallet. So, Virginie once borrows that photo from her boss's pocket and photocopies it. Then she enlarges it and makes stencils from it : a lifesize one, a bigger one, and a huge face closeup too. She pastes up those stencilled posters in the city and adds the address of the photocopy shop. Will Coralie be found ?
What is very important to know is that this is a musical film, in the way Jacques Demy did ("les demoiselles de Rochefort", etc...). Nicolas Engel has always been a great fan and specialist of this genre and his previous movie ("les voiliers du Luxembourg") was already a musical movie. This time, the music was composed by Philippe Poirier, a French musician who got especially well-known for his contribution to the band Kat Onoma. He did a great job using the rhythm of the copying machines as a steady beat, a background for the tunes.
In "les voiliers du Luxembourg", Nicolas showed some street stencils by Nemo but they were not really "part" of the plot. This time, he wanted street art to play a mere "part" in the plot. As a fan of my work, he thus asked me to create the stencils and paste them during the shooting. That was a very interesting experience and I loved the atmosphere on the shooting...

On Arte TV, wed june 18th, by Jef Aerosol on May 21, 2008 11:40:51 GMT 1, Well, the movie has only just been out... It is being shown at the Cannes Festival now, it's in competition in the "semaine de la critique" section. I haven't seen the finished movie yet ! I'm dying to. I couldn't go to Cannes, so I gave a dozen paste-ups to Nicolas so that they could be pasted up in Cannes during the Festival. I look forward to watching the film at last ! I'm told the reactions at Cannes were very good. It'll be shown in Paris soon and will be broadcast on Arte TV too. As it's a short movie (20 mn), it can only be shown in festivals etc... It's Nicolas's second short film and, of course, if "Coralie" gets some good feedback, maybe it might allow him to shoot his first long feature film...

Cannes, France.
The film won the "Rail d'Or" at the SIC (semaine internationale de la critique) at the Cannes Festival 2008.
Since 1995, a group of cinephiles railwaymen attends Critics’ Week screenings and awards the Grand Rail d’Or for best feature film and the Petit Rail d’Or for best short film.
It means Nicolas (the director) will get one more35mm copy of the film for free.
The movie is now being shown in Corsica.
I'll post a reminder when it's shown on arte TV (june 18th)
(I hope this thread isn't too much off-topic...)

He likes street art and had been a fan of my work for quite a while. He was very happy when I agreed to work with him and I was very happy too ! Very simple story, in fact !

On Arte TV, wed june 18th, by Jef Aerosol on Jun 17, 2008 12:25:50 GMT 1, I'm trying to find out whether this can be watched on the web, but can't really find anything... ARTE is a German-French channel that can be watched on all televisions in France and Germany but I don't know if you can watch it abroad. I guess it must be broadcast on cable and satellite...
