Bernie (1996 Film)
''Bernie'' is a 1996 French film directed by Albert Dupontel. Plot It tells the story of Bernie Noël, a 29-year-old man who's been raised all his life in an orphanage in Paris' suburbs. He was found in a garbage can when he was only a few months old. His first name comes from the man who found him there (Bernie, the building's janitor) and his last name comes from the time of year when he was found (Noël, "Christmas" in French). At age 29, Bernie decides to leave the orphanage to explore a world that he knows only through television and what his friends have told him. On his own, roaming a Paris-by-night hostile environment, he goes through several madly epic adventures searching for his parents, before eventually finding them and "saving" them from an imaginary government conspiracy. This neurotic and maladjusted young man will bring mischief and mayhem in his trail, which will lead him and his loved ones to a dramatic conclusion... Film info * Directed by : Albert Dupontel * ...

Films Directed By Albert Dupontel
A film also called a movie, motion picture, moving picture, picture, photoplay or (slang) flick is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images.

The word "cinema", short for cinematography, is often used to refer to filmmaking and the film industry, and to the art form that is the result of it. Recording and transmission of film The moving images of a film are created by photographing actual scenes with a motion-picture camera, by photographing drawings or miniature models using traditional animation techniques, by means of CGI and computer animation, or by a combination of some or all of these techniques, and other visual effects.

Loïc Houdré
Loïc or Loick is a male personal forename chiefly used in Brittany, in western France, and in the Breton community in French-speaking countries. Origins ''Loïc'' is a Breton given name, based on ''Laou'', a Breton diminutive of Gwilherm or Gwilhom (like Bill is a diminutive of William), with the diminutive ending ''ig'' (like Billy). Non-Breton speaking Bretons often think it is the Breton form of the name Louis. In Provence, in southeastern France, many think that it actually is "the old Provençal form of Louis", in which case it means "''Famed Warrior''". Another less well accepted explanation of the origin of the name is that its source is "Loukas", a Greek name meaning "''One from Lucania''". This would group the name with other names that have this root, such as Luke, Luc and Lucas.Babynamer.com
