From The Hunts of Count Zaroff directed in 1932 by Irving Pichel and Ernest B. Schoedsack, to The Revenant by Alejandro González Inarritu. For directors, beyond the genre and action film, Survival is an opportunity, unexpected in a very popular genre, to approach philosophical and existential questions. Indeed, the direct and frontal confrontation of a group of men with the savagery of nature, brings each person back to their nature as a fragile and vulnerable animal and to considerations as primary as survival. By imagining a documentary between visual exploration and cinephilic decryption, Sauvage wants to explore these cinema territories where man is not welcome.See less
