• Resumen

  • Pascal Rogard, president of the French society of dramatic authors and composers (Société des Auteurs et Compositeurs Dramatiques - SACD), wrote to the Minister for Culture early in the summer 2015 on the matter of showing films on France Télévisions’ catch-up service Pluzz. This was because when the public-sector audiovisual group had offered Claude Lanzmann’s film ‘Shoah’ on Pluzz for a period of thirty days on the occasion of the anniversary of the Liberation, a number of professional organisations in the cinema sector had referred the matter to the national audiovisual regulatory body (Conseil Supérieur de l’Audiovisuel - CSA), pointing out that such exceptional use of the film should only be authorised because of the particular circumstances of the ceremonies connected with the Liberation anniversary celebrations
