France was the birthplace of cinema and French Film was always home to innovation. The silent Impressionists and Surrealists such as René Clair and Poetic Realists like Jean Vigo, Marcel Carné and Jean Renoir influenced film-makers worldwide.
But the biggest impact was caused by the nouvelle vague, with young auteurs François Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard and Louis Malle challenging the conventions of screen storytelling.
