Gay à Tout Prix 1997

Made up of meetings with some of the actors of the gay community of Paris, this documentary evokes the development of the community phenomenon and its economic importance in districts handed over to traders and companies competing for the market. By comparing different points of view, this film produced in June 1997 during Europride offers a reflection on the identity of a community caught up in its own contradictions, divided between the desire to assert its difference and the desire to blend in with the company.

The Weird World of Eadweard Muybridge 2010

Pioneer photographer, forefather of cinema, showman, murderer - Eadweard Muybridge was a Victorian enigma. He was born and died in Kingston upon Thames, but did his most famous work in California - freezing time and starting it up again, so that for the first time people could see how a racing horse's legs moved. He went on to animate the movements of naked ladies, wrestlers, athletes, elephants, cockatoos and his own naked body, projecting his images publicly with a machine he invented and astounding audiences worldwide with the first flickerings of cinema. Alan Yentob follows in Muybridge's footsteps as he makes - and often changes - his name, and sets off to kill his young wife's lover. With Andy Serkis as Muybridge
