THE LOVERS ON THE BRIDGE

A French film director, critic, and writer, he began his film career with a series of short films, and as a film critic, before he released Boy Meets Girl. Next came the science fiction themed Bad Blood, which alienated some of his audience, but the work continued to explore the complexities of love in the modern world, this time through a darker, more criminal viewpoint. Five years later, he returned to directing with Les Amants du Pont-Neuf. The movie was released to critical acclaim and opened the door for Carax to enter more experimental waters with his fourth feature, Pola X. Holy Motors is the next feature film he made.
