Olivier Assayas : 2018
Non-Fiction
Set in the French publishing world, an editor and an author find themselves in over their heads, as they cope with a middle-age crisis, the changing industry and their wives. Alain, a successful Parisian publisher struggling to adapt to the digital revolution, has major doubts about the new manuscript of Léonard, one of his long-time authors – another work of auto-fiction recycling his love affair with a minor celebrity. Selena, Alain's wife, a famous stage actress, is of the opposite opinion. Overwhelmed by the new practices of the publishing world, the two men struggle to find their place in a society whose code they can no longer crack. Olivier Assayas's feature premiered in competition at Venice International Film Festival 2018.
