What happens
La Cambrure (The Curve) is a 1999 French short film shot on video, directed by Edwige Shaki, who also wrote the scenario. Éric Rohmer was a technical advisor for the short, which was produced by his production company. Despite being directed by Shaki, some of Rohmer's trademarks—such as extensive dialog and beautiful young actors, including Shaki herself—are present. The film was the first digital cinema production to be presented in a commercial theater, at the Cannes Film Festival in May 1999. It was produced in preparation for Rohmer's feature film The Lady and the Duke (2001), in which Shaki also appeared. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
