Gero von Boehm's documentary on fashion photographer Helmut Newton is out in French cinemas. It features interviews from his famous muses including Claudia Schiffer, Anna Wintour and Charlotte Rampling, but also delves into some of the controversies surrounding his provocative style.

FRANCE 24's film critic Lisa Nesselson also recommends Hafsia Herzi's "Good Mother". It won the Ensemble Prize in the "Un Certain Regard" selection at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival. The authentic cast and decor bring to life the story of a working-class woman living in the north of Marseille.

Finally, Lisa shares her thoughts on the future of screens and new ways to appreciate images. From mobile phone apps to immersive artistic experiences, we discuss what's available.
