Around the World: September 2019

As is the case every year, September is a month packed with travel for French artists who attend film festivals in Venice, Venice, San Sebastian, and Namur, to mention just a few. The director and actors of Les Misérables continue zipping round the planet (from Russia to the United States, with stops in Canada and Spain), as do those of Portrait of a Lady on Fire. And Alice Winocour and her vessel Proxima set out on their orbit with TIFF and San Sebastian. May the winds of space speed them on their way!
