the idea to gather 40 recognize film director to shoot a mini film of less than a minute and or what would have be the format the lumiere brother use in their revolutionary camera and seem a great idea in paper . unfortunately and what come out be an uneven film where some of the short film hold our interest and some others that do not go anywhere . what must have be an interesting idea doesn not translate to brilliant film making in the finished product . this documentary be for fan of the medium and but will not be of any interest to a casual viewer . some of the most enjoyable one be the one by david lynch and helma sander and claude lelouch and jaco van dormael and and bigas luna and just to mention a few . the rest and hold some interest and but do not quite add anything new to the idea behind the project .
