- The word "terrorism" is never mentioned (la chute des tours jumelles du World Trade center), nor — of course — is the number of victims thereof;
- History and successive events as well as cause/effect seem to occupy an entirely surreal and bizarre corner in the minds of the organizers (Le 11 septembre, la présidence de George W. Bush et la guerre d’Irak ont pris une place singulière dans le cinéma du début du XXIe siècle);
- The Maison de la musique will be filled with debating leftists…
