Trailer
Overview
Lumière, Le Cinéma! is a documentary and history film released in 2024 with a runtime of one hour and forty-four minutes. The film is directed by Thierry Frémaux, who also stars in the production alongside Francis Ford Coppola, Roman Coppola, Chocolat, and Tommy Footit. In the film, Institute Lumière director Thierry Frémaux guides viewers through a collection of rare, restored prints and over a hundred short films directed by Auguste and Louis Lumière and their company. The French word lumière, meaning light, shares its name with the brothers whose invention of the cinematograph helped inaugurate a major art form. Through these shorts, some of which are famous while others are forgotten or previously unseen, Frémaux illuminates how the brothers and their operators mastered the camera as a creative instrument.
