La petite histoire d'un homme sans histoire

A man in his mid-40s is killed by a truck just after receiving a prescription against death from his doctor. He then regains consciousness in a video store, and with some further difficulties, receives a film of his life. Although full of factual inaccuracies, it is an enjoyable examination of his birth, youth, marriage, family and death. Unfortunately, his request for a sequel is denied, and as he advances down the corridor to God, technical difficulties are experienced.

The Hunger

The Hunger

The Hunger is a British/Canadian television horror anthology series, co-produced by Scott Free Productions, Telescene Film Group Productions and the Canadian pay-TV channel The Movie Network. Though it shares a title with the feature film The Hunger the series has no direct plot or character connection to the film, and was created by Jeff Fazio. Originally shown on the Sci Fi Channel in the UK, The Movie Network in Canada and Showtime in the US, the series was broadcast from 1997 to 2000, and is internally organized into two seasons. Each episode was based around an independent story introduced by the host; Terence Stamp hosted each episode for the first season, and was replaced in the second season by David Bowie. Stories tended to focus on themes of self-destructive desire and obsession, with a strong component of soft-core erotica; popular tropes for the stories included cannibalism, vampires, sex, and poison.

3 x rien

3 x rien shows the lives of Alex, Louis and Jean-François who, as they enter their thirties, do everything they can to step up and be counted…and sometimes fall flat on their faces in the attempt. A well-dosed mixture of reality and fiction in which these three comedians known as Les Mecs comiques describe the little inconsequential events of everyday life with biting wit. A living comedy of life that is funny and surprising and that describes the everyday existence of young adults through their real concerns, whether futile or existential!
