Here are the editorial team’s ten favorite films.
It was already the shock of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival: “The Zone of Interest” by English director Jonathan Glazer has not finished haunting our times, immersion in the daily life of the commander of Auschwitz, Rudolf Höss, but also dizzying reflection on our ability to live in our bubble when the world collapses. The most important cinematographic work of this first half of the 21st century, “The Zone of Interest” is our undeniable number 1 film released in 2024. A year also marked by great French offerings including fantastic first films – “Les Fantômes” , “Twenty Gods”, “The Kingdom” or even “Rabia”.
