Kristen Stewart and Juliette Binoche in Clouds of Sils Maria (Olivier Assayas, 2014) Cast: Juliette Binoche, Kristen Stewart, Chloë Grace Moretz, Lars Eidinger, Johnny Flynn, Angela Winkler, Hanns Zischler. Screenplay: Olivier Assayas. Cinematography: Yorick Le Saux. Production design: François-Renaud Labarthe. Film editing: Marion Monnier.  Olivier Assayas's Clouds of Sils Maria demands almost as much attention after you've finished it as it did while you were watching it. The set-up is this: An actress, Maria Enders (Juliette Binoche), is asked to perform in a revival of the play that made her famous when she was only 18. Now that she's in her 40s, however, she will play the older woman who has a relationship with the character she earlier played. She accepts reluctantly, and then wants to back out when she finds that the younger actress, Jo-Ann Ellis (Chloë Grace Moretz), who has been cast in her original role is a Hollywood star best known not only for working in sci-fi blockbusters but also for her off-screen affairs that draw the attention of the paparazzi and Internet gossip sites. However, Maria's personal assistant, Valentine (Kristen Stewart), thinks Jo-Ann is a good actress who has been exploited by the media, and persuades Maria to take the role. Maria and Valentine retreat to the home of the play's author, who has recently died, in Sils Maria, a Swiss village, where Valentine helps Maria learn her lines. As the film progresses, the lines of the play echo not only Maria's own feelings about growing older, but also the somewhat ambiguous relationship between Maria and Valentine. Indeed, it's often not entirely clear whether actress and assistant are reciting the lines of the play or are voicing their own feelings for each other. And then the casting of the film brings out another layer of meaning: Stewart is best-known for the Twilight movies, precisely the kind of Hollywood film that Maria turns up her nose at when she first hears about Jo-Ann's career. Assayas, who also wrote the screenplay, deftly juggles all these layers of art and reality, but the film would be nothing without Stewart's superb performance, which won her the César Award in France as well as the best supporting actress awards from the New York Film Critics Circle and the National Society of Film Critics. There are those who think the film is more talk than substance and that it feels like a "high-concept" product: Persona (Ingmar Bergman, 1966) meets All About Eve (Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1950), perhaps. But seeing Stewart interact with Binoche more than justifies it for me.

Clouds of Sils Maria - Official Trailer At the peak of her international career, Maria Enders is asked to perform in a revival of the play that made her famous twenty years ago. But back then she played the role of Sigrid, an alluring young girl who disarms and eventually drives her boss Helena to suicide. Now she is being asked to step into the other role, that of the older Helena. She departs with her assistant to rehearse in Sils Maria; a remote region of the Alps. A young Hollywood starlet with a penchant for scandal is to take on the role of Sigrid, and maria finds herself on the other side of the mirror, face to face with an ambiguously charming woman who is, in essence, an unsettling reflection of herself.

The Poland-based Camerimage Film Festival is unique because it celebrates cinematography in film, television, streaming, and music videos. Alfred Hitchcock famously said, "To make a great film you need three things -- the script, the script, and the script." While the script is the soul of the film, the cinematography is the face of the film. All that is depicted on screen is what the cinematographers or the directors of photography capture on their cameras. It isn't just the breathtaking moments owing to vast landscapes or gargantuan sets that the cinematographer captures. The most sensitive moments on film are the results of the cinematographer capturing every nuance of expression on the countenance of an actor. 

Cinematic milestones such as Gone with the Wind (1939), Lawrence of Arabia (1962), The Godfather (1972), Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Blade Runner (1982), etc. wouldn't be regarded as masterful without the exquisite cinematography.

The Camerimage festival this year was marred due to 'sexist' opinions of the festival's director Marek Żydowicz in an op-ed for Cinematography World about female directors and cinematographers. Żydowicz received intense backlash from many in the film industry and tried to extinguish the fire with not just one but two apologies but the outraged mob thought his sexism was too severe for forgiveness. The British Society of Cinematographers replied to Żydowicz that they were "disheartened and angered by your profoundly misogynistic comments and aggressive tone, which we view as symptomatic of a deep-rooted prejudice."

Filmmaker Steve McQueen and his cinematographer Yorick Le Saux for the film Blitz pulled out of the festival in protest. McQueen was to receive a special award. Director Coralie Fargeat and cinematographer Benjamin Kračun of the film The Substance withdrew their film from the competition and didn't attend the festival. The festival jury didn't withdraw but "committed to being part of any gender representation debate."
