Overview

A film about news, life and death. Before the media became so prevalent, we were concerned about our immediate neighborhood.

The world has become one big neighborhood. Now Headline News has replaced the back fence. That's the news service of the eigthies. It's a new idea and a new approach.

The Making of Michel Petite

Invalid Date

The film shows the behind-the-scenes process of making a documentary about an author known for their autofiction stories.
