- AMAH is a half-hour primetime cautionary thriller, set in a near future about the pressure on mothers to have-it-all. LEILA, a successful, driven scientist, struggles to balance the demands of motherhood and career. Her well-meaning husband DAVID brings in AMAH as the ideal solution - an Artificially Intelligent android in the guise of a sweet-faced old woman programmed with traditional Chinese values. When Leila's son KEVIN (5) nearly drowns as a result of her distracted parenting, things start to unravel as the overly protective AMAH deems Leila to be an unfit mother. As pressures mount at Leila's work and a traumatised Kevin becomes even clingier, the insidious undermining by AMAH leads Leila to become paranoid and fearful. Meanwhile, David starts to doubt his wife's sanity.

- This film based on an idea of Bertrand Tavernier. It is a sort of "making off" (a film about a film) of the First Film, which was shot in Lyon by Louis Lumière just one century ago, on a site which still contains a few remaining vestiges of the former Lumière factories. What can we re-enact of the conditions in which the first film was shot ? Was Louis Lumière an inventor, or was he the first film-maker ? Was this the start of a new art form ? By using methods of investigation, he will make it a point of honor to demonstrate via this documentary that Louis and Auguste's invention still deeply affects and fascinates us, and show to what extent Louis Lumière the film-maker has things to teach the directors of the present-day and tomorrow.
