These are two short films by photographer and documentary-maker Raymond Depardon. ‘Muriel Leferle’ follows a Paris prostitute through interviews with magistrates after her arrest on suspicion of stealing a car. She talks lovingly of fast cars, but insists she couldn’t steal one as she can’t drive, and, being HIV positive, boasts of her good health. ‘Paroles d’Appelés’ (made for the Ministry of Defence AIDS prevention programme) is an interesting series of snapshots of young men on military service expressing their views on AIDS.
