This box set brings together a collection of remarkable works by the acclaimed documentary filmmaker Nicolas Philibert. NÉNETTE: Born in the jungles of Borneo forty years ago, Nénette the orangutan is now the most senior inhabitant of the world’s oldest zoo. In this awe-inspiring, tender and funny film, we observe Nénette’s daily life and eavesdrop on the conversations of her many visitors. ÊTRE ET AVOIR: This charming and intimate portrait of a single-class primary school in rural France and its inspirational teacher offers a touching and absorbing look at the heart of a village community. LA VILLE LOUVRE: This spellbinding behind the scenes look at the world's greatest art museum reveals a secret world of private chambers, miles of underground passages and vast reserves containing thousands of priceless paintings, sculptures and objects. ANIMALS: The Zoology Gallery of the National Natural History Museum was renovated in the early nineties after being closed to the public for a quarter of a century. This strange and fascinating film charts the resurrection of hundreds of stuffed animals from their forgotten twilight zone. BACK TO NORMANDY: Over thirty years ago, Nicolas Philibert worked as an assistant to film director René Allio on a movie version of an influential book compiled by Michel Foucault. Philibert returns to the old locations to reminisce with the now middle-aged or elderly actors about the way it affected their lives.
