THE 3 BEST FILMS ACCORDING TO PRESS:
1: Gourmet menus Les Troisgros – 3.9/5
“This portrait of the artist as dealer illustrates the tension that is the genius of Wiseman's “art films,” between a microcosm behind closed doors and the thousand ways in which the world subverts it in a political and cosmic sense.” By Charlotte Garson (Cahiers du cinema)
“The great documentary filmmaker works as an archivist and, over four hours, immortalizes a craft, a love of taste and a respect for the land that would have made a four-episode miniseries easier to digest.” By NS (L'Obs)
2nd: Her father's daughter – 3.8/5
“Emotions simmer behind every second of “Her Father's Daughter,” without seeming to be laughing with the class.” By Emmanuelle Spadacenta (CinemaTeaser)
“Her Father's Daughter is a subtle and intense evocation of the unconditional love between a father and his daughter, rarely seen in the cinema.” By Anne-Claire Cieutat (pages)
3rd: For your wedding – 3.7/5
“This impressive self-portrait questions what parents leave their children spiritually and makes us laugh and cry about origins and identity. Which is very good in these times.” By Damien Leblanc (premiere)
“Free, funny, tragic and powerfully unique.” By Serge Kaganski (defector)

THE 3 BEST MOVIES ACCORDING TO VIEWERS:
1: Travel to the South Pole – 3.7/5
“In summary, 'Return to Antarctica' is a celebration of natural beauty, a visual work of art that awakens the senses and provokes thought. It is a film not to be missed, an eloquent testament to cinema's ability to take us to discover unexplored worlds and connect us deeply with our planet. By Felix Lebelle
“This film is a floating moment. He immerses us in the beauty of a dazzling journey. We are amazed, the pictures are lush. Luc Jacquet takes us to discover this inaccessible continent. His story takes us on an unforgettable journey.” Adventure.” By Aude
2nd: The settlers – 3.6/5
“This film is a real slap in the face in which we discover the genocide of the Patagonian Indians (Selk'nam Indians).” By khesanh76
“Very strong film. A little-known aspect of the abuses against the indigenous population in Chile and Argentina. Sober and effective production. Great presence of the actors. Original music.” By Lydielahogue
3rd place: Her father’s daughter – 3.5/5
“The film sparkles, swirls, surprises in its construction, its tenderness and its finely crafted dialogues with sprinkles of humor. More than just a great favorite, it's truly a new take on cinema. Like a new Amélie Poulain.” By dejihem
“After Perdrix, Erwan Le Duc returns with His Father's Daughter, a film about childhood, learning and absence. It's a film of gigantic precision and sensitivity, with incredible actors. Absolutely worth seeing!” By s.prsn
