Press Release

 

Tagline: Two photographers in Paris question each other’s style: What drives art? Passion or reason?

 

Synopsis:

The Decisive Moment follows the life of two young photographers in Paris, Henry, and Camille. They have very different approaches to their work. Is the creative process a commitment to analytical reason or a passionated inspiration?

They are so different and yet so similar.

The film is a homage to the photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, who was able to combine analytical reason and passionate inspiration in his perfectly composed photographs. He did this in the spare of a moment, a Decisive Moment.
