奥古斯都与路易斯·卢米埃兄弟，是现代电影之父，本片就是为了纪念他们而拍摄的，每位受到邀请的导演，都要回答三个问题：为什么你愿意参与拍摄这部影片；为什么你要拍摄电影；电影是否会消亡？每个导演还要用当初卢米埃兄弟制造的世界上最古老的摄影机拍摄一段52秒钟的短片，而且有三个规则：52秒；不能同步录音；不能重复拍三次以上。

《朱莉小姐》原是戏剧大师斯特林堡的代表作，女主角因性格怪僻而遭遇未婚夫抛弃，这时一名男仆乘机求爱，朱莉小姐被打动于是与男仆谋划私奔。但后来朱莉偷了父亲的钱被发现，正在狼狈时父亲已经回家，男仆建议朱莉用剃刀自杀以保住名节，朱莉拿着刀开门走了出去。这部作品一直被看做是小型室内剧的典范，曾多次被翻拍成电影，故事中激烈的戏剧冲突对演员来说是不小考验。

Kristin is the daughter of a prominent landowner in medieval Norway. She grows up in total harmony with the ideals of the time: strong family ties, social pride and devout Christianity. She accepts the fact that her father has arranged for her to marry the son of another landowner. Kristin's beauty and purity create violent emotions around her. There are envy and attempted rape, murder and revenge. She seeks refuge from the world in a convent, awaiting the time for her marriage. Here the passion of her life strikes, the knight Erlend Nikulaussonn. He, an accomplished seducer, also falls hopelessly in love. They have to cross not only convent walls to meet, but social boundaries as well. Their love cannot be kept secret, and suddenly the innocent Kristin is the centre of a scandal. Her fiance withdraws from their engagement, her father rages, and Erlend's former mistress tries to poison her. The affair grows into a political issue, and finally some of the country's most dignified leaders persuade Lavrans to give in. The lovers win each other, but it is in front of a charred altar in a burnt down church, and their happiness has a double edge. Written by The Norwegian Film Institute
