Feat. l'équipe de "Tu réalises ?" : Line, Facundo et Cécile / La Fille Renne. Un podcast enregistré le 23 mai 2026 au Grrrnd Zero (Vaulx-en-Velin, 69).Au cinéma, les luttes politiques sont souvent vues à travers quelques personnages emblématiques. Mais en faisant appel à des acteur·ices connu·es pour les interpréter, on risque de se retrouver avec des films peu réalistes, où des bourgeois·es jouent des prolos…Alors comment faire mieux ? Comment filmer des mouvements politiques, en fiction ou en documentaire, sans trahir l'esprit de révolte qui les anime, ni instrumentaliser ses militant·es ? On parle de tout ça avec trois membres du collectif lyonnais "Tu réalises ?", qui rassemble justement des jeunes cinéastes très engagés !Au programme, des discussions et des extraits de films soigneusement choisis. Mais aussi : un film avec uniquement des mains, un jumpscare de Macron, le roast de tous les hommes (Ruffin, Lindon, Hugo Clément…), et surtout beaucoup de mise en scène (c'est important la mise en scène).--Récap des films conseillés dans l'émission :The Uprising (Peter Snowdon)An Uncertain Eternity (Ella Morton)Histoire d'A (Charles Belmont et Marielle Issartel)Les glaneurs et la glaneuse (Agnès Varda, 2000)La traversée (Daniel Cohn-Bendit et Romain Goupil — c'est un conseil à prendre au 2nd degré…)Joker (Todd Philips)Pink Flamingos (John Waters, 1972)Supersize Me (Morgan Spurlock, 2004)--Nos chroniqueurs et chroniqueuses ont du talent !

“Prune Nourry” Défense de rien toucherau Palais idéal du facteur Cheval, Hauterivesdu 31 mai au 6 septembre 2026Entretien avec Frédéric Legros,Directeur du palais idéal, et commissaire de l'exposition,par Anne-Frédérique Fer, à Hauterives, le 6 juillet 2026, durée 15'05, © FranceFineArt.https://francefineart.com/2026/07/10/3728_prune-nourry_palais-ideal-du-facteur-cheval/Communiqué de presseCommissaire :Frédéric Legros, Directeur du Palais idéalAu fronton de son oeuvre, dès 1905, Ferdinand Cheval inscrit cette formule aussi énigmatique que poétique : « défense de rien toucher ». Une invitation paradoxale, oscillant entre interdiction et permission, à laquelle Prune Nourry répond aujourd'hui par une proposition résolument généreuse : une exposition entièrement pensée pour être touchée.Avec Défense de rien toucher, l'artiste transforme le Palais idéal en un vaste terrain d'expérience sensorielle. Ici, le regard ne suffit plus ; il s'efface au profit du contact, du ressenti, de la mémoire des formes saisies par la paume. Accessible à toutes et tous, enfants, adultes, publics voyants ou déficients visuels, l'exposition s'affranchit des conventions muséales pour réactiver une relation directe et physique à l'oeuvre.Ce parti pris trouve une résonance profonde avec le geste fondateur de Ferdinand Cheval. Facteur rural devenu bâtisseur autodidacte, formé initialement comme boulanger, il a littéralement « pétri » son Palais. Partout, la trace de la main affleure : dans les reliefs, les aspérités, les accumulations patientes de matière. En invitant à toucher ses propres oeuvres, Prune Nourry rend hommage à cette dimension tactile et organique du Palais idéal.Révélée à la Fondation Bullukian à Lyon sous l'intitulé Empreintes, et avant de rejoindre le Musée Camille Claudel en 2027, cette nouvelle proposition de Prune Nourry trouve ici une étape singulière. Déployée dans ce lieu hors norme, elle en épouse l'esprit et en prolonge les intuitions : un dialogue entre cultures, entre temporalités, entre imaginaires.Le parcours s'ouvre sur un univers postal, clin d'oeil à Ferdinand Cheval. Un timbre en relief, conçu par Prune Nourry en partenariat avec La Poste en 2024 (le premier de ce type) inaugure l'exposition. Réalisé en collaboration avec des personnes aveugles et malvoyantes, il est né d'ateliers d'expérimentation tactile où formes, textures et volumes ont été ajustés pour être perçus par les doigts. Plus qu'un objet à voir, ce timbre se lit au toucher : il incarne une création pensée avec celles et ceux qui en font l'expérience sensible. Ce timbre devient également le vecteur d'une lettre adressée à Philomène, épouse du Facteur, figure discrète mais essentielle sans laquelle le Palais idéal n'aurait sans doute jamais vu le jour.À l'image du Palais, l'exposition se déploie comme un monde en miniature, un carrefour de récits et de cultures. Les Terracotta Daughters ou les Holy Daughters y côtoient d'autres figures féminines, dessinant une cartographie sensible du corps et de l'identité à travers le temps et les géographies. Sans constituer une rétrospective, Défense de rien toucher traverse ainsi plusieurs projets majeurs de l'artiste et offre un panorama de son regard sur la condition féminine.Cette oeuvre s'inscrit également dans une expérience intime. En 2016, à l'annonce de son cancer du sein, la sculpteure prend conscience de l'importance vitale, pour elle, du toucher, menacé par les effets secondaires de la chimiothérapie. De cette épreuve naît une recherche artistique profondément incarnée, explorant le corps, la réparation et le rituel. C'est Agnès Varda, amie intime de l'artiste, qui lui évoque la figure des Amazones, héroïnes de la mythologie grecque qui se coupaient le sein pour mieux tirer à l'arc. Prune Nourry choisit d'intégrer cette puissance symbolique à son travail. La figure de la femme combattante, résiliente, traverse ainsi l'exposition.[...] Hébergé par Acast.

Née le 9 novembre 1914 à Vienne, révélée au grand public par le film Extase de Gustav Machatý, Hedy Lamarr conquiert ensuite Hollywood en tournant avec des réalisateurs majeurs tels que King Vidor, Jacques Tourneur ou Victor Fleming. Derrière l'image de beauté mythique se cache une femme d'une intelligence rare, animée par une curiosité insatiable. Passionnée de sciences, Hedy Lamarr mène, en parallèle de sa carrière d'actrice, des expériences chez elle. Visionnaire, elle développe avec le compositeur George Antheil un procédé révolutionnaire de codage des transmissions, fondé sur le saut de fréquence. Pensée pour soutenir l'effort de guerre américain, cette invention ouvre la voie aux technologies modernes de communication sans fil. Hedy Lamarr était aussi une peintre de talent. L'invitée d'Axelle Thiry est Claudia Collao qui a suivi des études de cinéma à l'Université de Paris VIII, tout en travaillant dans le secteur de la production audiovisuelle. Elle débute à La Sept, bientôt rebaptisée Arte, avant de collaborer avec Agnès Varda pour Les Glaneurs et la Glaneuse, Jacques Rozier ou encore Tonie Marshall. Elle écrit et réalise son premier documentaire en 2005, Chili, là où se termine la terre. Parmi ses autres réalisations figurent (Re)Make in Hollywood (2022), Europa Maudit : Metropolis (sélection compétition Histoire du Cinéma, Pessac 2022) et Hedy Lamarr : l'invention d'une star (2018). sujets traités : Hedy Lamarr, génie, Hollywood, actrice, George Antheil , peintre, Claudia Collao Merci pour votre écoute Un Jour dans l'Histoire, c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 13h15 à 14h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez tous les épisodes d'Un Jour dans l'Histoire sur notre plateforme Auvio.be :https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/5936 Intéressés par l'histoire ?

Agnès Varda, figure majeure du cinéma français, a fait de sa vie une œuvre libre et profondément personnelle. Née à Bruxelles et marquée par l'exil, elle développe très tôt un regard singulier sur le monde. Sans formation classique, elle révolutionne le cinéma avec La Pointe Courte, annonçant la Nouvelle Vague. Son travail mêle documentaire, fiction et engagement, avec une attention constante aux êtres et au réel. Sa rencontre avec Jacques Demy marque sa vie autant que son œuvre. Lorsque celui-ci tombe malade, Varda transforme la douleur en création avec Jacquot de Nantes. Elle y filme l'amour, la mémoire et la disparition avec une pudeur bouleversante. Jusqu'au bout, elle explore, innove et se réinvente. Son parcours est celui d'une artiste libre, qui n'a jamais cessé de créer pour comprendre et sublimer la vie.

Currently in theaters, Hoppers is the 30th feature-length film by Pixar Animation Studios. That seemed like an important enough number for us to turn to one of the evergreen questions: what's going on with Pixar, exactly? Tim is joined by Zev and Cameron to reminisce about the studio's history and mull over its recent run of films that mostly haven't lit the world on fire at the box office or in reviews. Before getting to Pixar, Zev brings Agnès Varda's very first film, La Pointe Courte, to our movie roundtable, while Cameron revisits a childhood favorite, Return to Oz. At the behest of Patreon supporter Hallvarður, Tim checks out the 1996 Icelandic dark comedy Devil's Island.

In which the Mister and Kid 1 join me in reviewing CLEO FROM 5 TO 7 (1962) from writer/director Agnès Varda.In Agnès Varda's 1962 French New Wave classic, a striking pop singer named Cléo (Corinne Marchand) spends ninety minutes wandering through the sun-drenched streets of Paris while anxiously awaiting a medical diagnosis that could confirm a terminal illness. As she moves from a state of superstitious dread and superficial vanity to a more profound observation of the world around her, she gradually sheds her "performer" persona in favor of a raw and grounded human experience. Her journey of self-reflection culminates in a chance encounter with a kind soldier on the eve of his departure for war, offering her a rare moment of genuine connection amidst her existential crisis. The film clocks in at 1 h and 30 m, is unrated and you can find it on HBO Max and to buy/rent on Prime Video.

This week we chat with Delian Asparouhov!Delian is a Partner at Founders Fund and the President and Co-Founder of Varda Space Industries, one of the most ambitious companies redefining what's possible in space and manufacturing. Varda is pioneering the orbital economy by producing pharmaceuticals and advanced materials in microgravity—unlocking breakthroughs that simply can't be achieved on Earth.Before co-founding Varda, Delian earned a Thiel Fellowship while still an undergraduate, leaving MIT to move to Silicon Valley and build at the frontier of technology. Since then, he's become a leading voice at the intersection of startups, deep tech, and national ambition.Beyond venture and space manufacturing, Delian is also the co-creator of the Hill & Valley Forum, which brings together leaders from Washington and Silicon Valley to strengthen collaboration around technology, defense, and national security.Born abroad and raised in Salt Lake City, Delian's journey—from a young coder obsessed with space to backing and building category-defining companies—has been anything but conventional. Driven by intellectual curiosity and an appetite for hard problems, he's helping shape the future of both industry and exploration.✨ This episode is presented by Brex.Brex: brex.com/trailblazerspodThis episode is supported by RocketReach, Gusto, OpenPhone & Athena.RocketReach: rocketreach.co/trailblazersGusto: gusto.com/trailblazersQuo: Quo.com/trailblazersAthena: athenago.me/Erica-WengerFollow Us!Delian's Twitter: @zebulgar@thetrailblazerspod: Instagram, YouTube, TikTokErica Wenger: @erica_wenger
In Un inno alla vita Gisèle Pelicot, protagonista di un caso giudiziario che ha sconvolto il mondo, racconta come si è ricostruita dopo le violenze subite. La scrittrice britannica Samantha Harvey nel suo ultimo libro Le infinite notti descrive la sua battaglia con l'insonnia.

La directora Isabel Coixet nos recibe en su estudio de Barcelona. Unos bajos con un pequeño jardín en el barrio de Gràcia de Barcelona. Un espacio presidido por la directora Agnès Varda, en una figura tamaño natural de cartón troquelado y fotos que la misma Coixet le hizo. Confiesa que mantiene conversaciones con ella, hablamos de la belleza de la vida y de esas pequeñas cosas que nos salva. Eso es parte del tema de su última película "los tres adioses" que se acaba de estrenar en cines.

Felicia is joined by Seth Vargas to discuss Arthur C. Miller's brooding camera as it follows Jimmy Ringo in The Gunfighter (1950). We chat about how the photography complements the stories ticking clock, and why the black and white imagery elevates this cerebral western. This is the final episode in the Arthur C. Miller series and I'm so glad I finally highlighted another cinematographer on the show. I hope you're inspired to watch more of his work and learn more about his craft.

In this episode, we explore how Varda Space Industries is pioneering pharmaceutical manufacturing in microgravity with Chief Strategy Officer Michael Riley and Chief Science Officer Adrian Radocea. The team discusses how removing gravity from the crystallization process enables better drug formulations—creating more stable, bioavailable medicines that don't require refrigeration. From their reusable spacecraft that can manufacture drugs in orbit and return them to Earth, to their vision of making space-based manufacturing routine and "boring," Varda is bridging aerospace engineering and biopharma to solve formulation challenges that have stumped the industry for decades. With $187 million in recent funding and spacecraft currently in orbit, they're transforming science fiction into a manufacturing platform that could expand access to medicines globally.Chapters:(00:00:00) Teaser and Introduction(00:05:00) Meet the Team: From Semiconductors and Global Health to Space Pharma(00:08:00) Microgravity as a Manufacturing Tool: Physics Over Chemistry(00:13:00) Which Drugs Benefit Most?

In Kathryn Robson's Beyond the Happy Ending: Imagining Happiness in Contemporary French Women's Writing and Film (Liverpool UP, 2025), happiness (and the question of how to define, measure and facilitate it) has become a key theme in political, economic and social discourses in recent decades in France and elsewhere, yet research on happiness in French culture and film has been limited. Given that happiness is clearly gendered, this book looks critically at the ways in which contemporary French women's writing and film give voice to and critique conceptions of happiness. Analysing French and francophone women's writing (including Nina Bouraoui, Hélène Cixous, Annie Ernaux, Camille Laurens, Leïla Slimani, Delphine de Vigan) and film (including Claire Denis, Céline Sciamma and Agnès Varda), I focus on five main areas: images of happiness in consumer and Internet culture; happiness and intimacy in the family and the home; queering happiness; migrated happiness, and happiness and ageing. Whilst the 'happiness turn' is problematic, the desire for happiness, however fraught, matters and I show how representations of happiness in contemporary French women's writing and film offer alternative conceptions of happiness that enable us to rethink happiness in more critical, diverse and inclusive terms. Author Dr. Kathryn Robson is a reader in French at Newcastle University and the author in 2019 of I Suffer Therefore I Am: Engaging with Empathy in Contemporary French Women's Writing and in 2004 Writing Wounds: The Inscription of Trauma in Post-1968 French Women's Life-writing. Host Gina Stamm is Associate Professor of French at The University of Alabama. Their research is concentrated on the environmental humanities and speculative literatures of the 20th and 21st centuries, from surrealism to contemporary science fiction and feminist utopias, in Metropolitan France and the francophone Caribbean.

Will takes us on an incredible journey from his father's early days crafting crowns for Iranian royalty — complete with goat-horn hammers and plaster impressions — to the modern world of digital design, milling, and 3D printing. Along the way, he shares stories of growing up in a lab, learning every step the hard way, and how a Facebook study group and a few friends completely changed the course of his career. He also talks about the importance of community in the lab world, the balance between art and obsession, and how the right attitude (and maybe a little wine in a furry purse) can make even the toughest lab days a little brighter. Now leading the charge in his province, Will is bringing technicians together — literally — with the first-ever Dental Boat Cruise, where hhe taught about digital fundamentals through his “recipe for design” approach. From scones to splines, Will explains how mastering the basics can give you true digital freedom no matter what software you use.
