The first time I heard the name ALAIN JAUBERT is when I got a free copy of a book called MARGES DE LA PHOTO from Alliance Francaise in Bangkok a few years ago. This free book is marvelous. It has a lot of information about
1.Films about still photos
2.Photo-resembling films
I learned from this book that Alain Jaubert directed some very interesting short films. I have never seen his films, but I hope I have a chance to see them in the future (though I can't attend his film event in Bangkok this early July.)
MARGES DE LA PHOTO is a book and a film program made by Raymond Bellour, Anne Coutinot, and Sylvain Roumette.

With text from QUATRE HEURES A CHATILA by Jean Genet
--Of all the 40 films listed above, the one I'd like to see the most is UNE GENERATION (1982, Philippe Grandrieux, 11:30 minutes). I think this Grandrieux should be the same person who directed SOMBRE (1998, A+), though I'm not 100 % sure about this.
MARGES DE LA PHOTO gives a little information about UNE GENERATION. It said, "The PALUCHE and the polaroid to present a generation who has not lived through 68 and for whom the tenth of May has been the first political change. The film discloses snatches of its argument, fragments of pictures, newspaper and television, the impossible choices and the questioning of beliefs."
