Le cinéma dans l'oeil de Magnum Plot

The film tells the story of the intimate and unprecedented encounter between the photojournalists of the Magnum Agency and the world of cinema. The confrontation of two seemingly opposite worlds – fiction and reality. For 70 years their paths crossed: a family of photographers, amongst them the biggest names in photography, and a family of actors and filmmakers who helped write the history of cinema, from John Huston to Marilyn Monroe to Orson Welles, Kate Winslet and Sean Penn.

For seventy years, the photojournalists of Magnum have observed the world of cinema as they would any conflict, social issue or country on the map. It was out of love for the actress Ingrid Bergman that Robert Capa took Magnum's very first photo of cinema, on the set of Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious, inaugurating the relationship between the agency and the world of films. Using original, unseen stories and interviews, Cinema Through the Eye of Magnum retraces this relationship over 70 years. It is a confrontation of two seemingly opposite worlds : fiction and reality, and a unique look behind the scenes of cinema in the making.
