The majority of his films don't find U.S distribution (perhaps his films are simply too "French") but audiences might remember him as the helmer of Le petit criminel, Ponette and most recently, Raja. Just by reading the plot outline, I think busy bee director Jacques Doillon might find a taker for Aux Quatre Vents (To the Four Winds).
Counting on a stellar cast, written by Doillon, the film centres on a playwright (Pascal Greggory) who invites some actors to his secluded house to prepare a play. But the combined presence of his ex-wife (Julie Depardieu) and her lover (Louis Garrel), as well as the playwright’s assistant and mistress (Agathe Bonitzer), makes this a particularly turbulent day, in which romantic and creative rivalries become entangled.
For some reason, I'm thinking of Ils se marièrent et eurent beaucoup d'enfants as I write this (probably because of the Birkin connection or the sequence in the film that takes place at this wicked flat in the forrest where diner guests explore ideas of infidelity).
Cineuropa.org reports that the pic will be produced by Alfama Films' veteran producer Paulo Branco, and will be shooting until August 29. Expect a Berlin or Cannes Film Festival premiere for the pic next year.

Reviews
Review: Spring Fever
A heavily flawed film that does a disservice to its quintet of characters by abruptly ending each character's final chapter before it even begins making Spring Fever a film that never manages to find itself. Audiences who've followed his past efforts such as Purple Butterfly and Summer Palace will be puzzled by erotica without reason, by the undefined terms in which the characters are set in and the lack of dramatic focus.
Interviews
Interview: Amir Bar-Lev (The Tillman Story)
Pat has a very wide appeal and people who admire him come from different parts of ideological spectrum. So we didn't want to alienate a part of our audience because the film is about Pat more than anything. So we wanted to invite everybody to the dialogue of what actually happened to him and the country at the time.
