Picture Start September 17, 2017 Philippe Duhamel Français "Cinema is my philosopher's staff. Filmmaking, to me, is tightrope walking across the depths of hell, attempting to make visible the invisible of this 'human condition' that Montaigne wrote about. Dazzling at times, pitch-dark at others, between tragedy and comedy, such is life and its mystery."— Jean-Daniel Lafond, September 17, 2017.
