The opening film will be Michel Gondry's latest film The We and the I. Filmed with non-acting high school students, it is the only American film along with the documentary Room 237 about Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. The closing film will be Noémie Lvovsky's Camille redouble.
Canadians are represented with Yulene Olaizola's Fogo, a co-production with Mexico. In the short film selection, one of the ten films is Avec Jeff, à moto (With Jeff ) by Marie-Eve Juste.
Generally though, the programming is dominated by French and Latin American films. All are world premieres or international premieres.
Films vying for the top prize of Caméra d'or are Elie Wajeman's Alyah, Yeun Sang-Ho's Dae gi eui wang (The King of Pigs), William Vega's La Sirga, Rachid Djaïdani's Rengaine (Hold Back), Rodney Ascher's aforementioned Room 237 and Massoud Bakhshi's Yek Khanévadéh-e Mohtaram (A Respectable Family).
The Quinzaine des Réalisateurs runs from May 17 to 27.
