Auguste and Louis Lumiere were French manufacturers of photographic equipment who are credited with the first public presentation of projected film in 1895: a shot of workers leaving their factory. During the next 10 years, they would make 1400 films that provide a unique view of turn-of-the-century France. Imbued with passion, joy and the pleasure of cinema, Thierry Fremaux’s montage taken from restored versions of 114 Lumiere Brothers films, with a commentary by Fremaux and a contribution from Martin Scorsese, takes us back to the very beginning of cinema and makes us fall in love with it all over again.
