Featuring previously unissued photographs and video archives as well as interviews of his friends and partners in crime, “Doisneau: through the lens” tells how the kid from the poor suburbs turned superstar photographer.

In 2016, the Noordbrabants Museum in the Dutch city of Den Bosch held a special exhibition devoted to the work of Hieronymus Bosch, who died 500 years ago. This late-medieval artist lived his entire life in the city, causing uproar with his fantastical and utterly unique paintings in which hell and the devil always played a prominent role. In preparation for the exhibition, a team of Dutch art historians crisscrosses the globe to unravel the secrets of his art. They use special infrared cameras to examine the sketches beneath the paint, in the hope of discovering more about the artist’s intentions. They also attempt to establish which of the paintings can be attributed with certainty to Bosch himself, and which to his pupils or followers. The experts shuttle between Den Bosch, Madrid and Venice, cutting their way through the art world’s tangle of red tape, in a battle against the obstacle of countless egos and conflicting interests. Not every museum is prepared to allow access to their precious art works.

Il regista, giovane papà, osserva una classe Montessori di piccoli dai 3 ai 6 anni. I bambini lavorano in un’atmosfera tranquilla, leggono, fanno il pane, le divisioni, ridono e dormono. Il maestro resta discreto.
Il metodo Montessori é un approccio educativo che vuole celebrare e nutrire il desiderio di conoscenza di ogni bambino: é valorizzato lo spirito umano dal punto di vista fisico, sociale, emozionale e cognitivo. Il regista ha portato la macchina da presa nella più antica scuola montessoriana di Francia con bambini dai 3 ai 6 anni e ha incontrato bambini felici, liberi di muoversi, capaci di lavorare da soli o in gruppo. Alcuni leggono, altri fanno il pane o le divisioni, o ridono, o dormono. L’insegnante rimane una presenza discreta. I bambini hanno guidato il regista attraverso un intero anno scolastico, mostrandogli la magia della loro autonomia e autostima, il lato di una nuova società di pace e libertà.
