Name: Le dernier rêve
Genre: Short
Duration: 15 min
Rating: 6
Cast: Jerry Bessem, Cécile de France, Eric De Staercke

A groovy little film about a projectionist in a run-down cinema who puts on a reel and falls asleep. From then on it's up to the audience to guess what's real, what's on the reel and what's a dream. Inventive and, like a lot of short (low-budget) films, it uses a documentary-style set-up to make the fantasy more acute and crams a lot into a few minutes. It won the Shine! Award for short films at Bradford Film Festival 2001.

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
