Similar in some ways to 1995's Lumiere & Company, 20 filmmakers are making a five-minute movie about one of the greatest cities in the world, Paris.

Each director will make a short film about a section of the city (arrondissment) and each segement will begin with the last scene from the previous director's film.

Who are the filmmakers participating?

Jean-Luc Godard
Agnes Varda
Matthieu Demy
Woody Allen
Tom Tykwer (his segment stars Natalie Portman)
Milcho Manchevski
Alejandro Gonzales Innarritu
Vincenzo Natali (Canadian!)
Olivier Dahan
Bernard Weber
Fernando Trueba
Abolfazl Jalili
Oliver Schmitz
Nobuhiro Suwa
Jiang Wen
Walter Salles & Daniela Thomas
Sally Potter
Tim Roth
Fanny Ardant (my French goddess....)
Johnny Depp (yes, THAT Johnny Depp)

Needless to say, I'm pretty pumped about this production. Apparently it's still in production with over half of the films now complete. I'll post more news as I hear it.
