Documentary
In the early 1960s, computers were still science-fiction to most people; those who did grasp computers knew them as room-filling behemoths. A small team at the Italian company Olivetti would thus astonish everyone in 1965 when they unveiled a computer small enough to fit on a desk and usable by regular people: Programma 101, considered by many the world’s first personal computer.

I recorded four years of the life of a great friend of mine in the attempt to catch some sort of catharsis. As I tried to deal with endings that were taking place in my life, the inevitable happened to him. His mother passed away without leaving any record on video. This is a movie to refrain from the fear of forgetting.Welcome to Macintosh

The adventure of the minitel, a small cubic terminal with a folding keyboard that began in the 1970s in the labs of France Telecom, is closely linked to Alsace. Alsatians had then in hand the future tools of interactive communication. What remains today of all those minitel years? Like a nocturnal and intimate road-movie, this documentary went to meet the last people who are still interested in the minitel, this strange beige box of access to telematic services, corny today, but pioneers at the end of the last century.All Is One.
