This issue of the French cinema magazine features a variety of articles and themes. It begins with a focus on the film *Patients* by Grand Corps Malade and Mehdi Idir, highlighting its box office success and the acting talents of Soufiane Guerrab and Liam Pierron.

The magazine also includes top 10 lists of films from the past decade and the year 2019, as voted on by both readers and the editorial staff. A preview of the most anticipated films of 2020 follows, including works by Quentin Dupieux, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Bruno Dumont, Leos Carax, and others. Finally, several articles delve into specific films like *Tommaso* by Abel Ferrara with an interview of the director, followed by a critical review of *Uncut Gems* and an interview with the Safdie Brothers and also an emphasis on the theme of film making and art.
