#Cannes2012 Renoir by Gilles Bourdos
Synopsis: 1915 on the Côte d’Azur. Auguste Rodin, in his twilight years, is tried by the loss of his wife, the troubles of old age, and the bad news that has come from the front: Jean, his son, has been wounded. However, a young woman, Andrée, who has appeared in his life like a miracle, instils a new lease of life into the old man, something he was no longer expecting. Bursting with vitality and radiating beauty, Andrée will be the painter’s last model and his fountain of youth. When Jean, who has returned wounded from the war, comes to convalesce at the family home, he discovers the woman who has become the red-headed star of the Renoir galaxy with fascination. In this Mediterranean Eden, and despite the grumbling opposition of the old painter, Jean falls in love with the woman who will turn the faint-hearted, lame young officer into a budding film-maker, through her muddled, elusive will.

Up until today, we could still wonder; with Post Tenebras Lux, however, we can arrive at a firm opinion on the issue, despite the film’s wonderful title. In fact, the Mexican director is a swindler, one of those people who manage to befuddle the mind and sight of critics and festival selectors enough for them to accept his films with their eyes shut, or to praise all their great qualities.
