As the most important French director of the 70s, 80s and 90s, Bertrand Tavernier went down in film history. Like no other filmmaker, he embodied the changed political and social consciousness that arose in the French film of the '68 movement. He took a close look at the economic and social conditions, formulated criticism of the social institutions and power that played such a central role in the political and philosophical thinking of the period after 68. In 2015, Tavernier received a Golden Lion for his life's work. With the Bertrand Tavernier Edition, 11 of his most important works are now published in one box.
