France joins the Dogme 95 movement

The fifth entry in the Dogme 95 movement - and the first not to come from Denmark - is about a relationship between a French woman and a refugee from the former Yugoslavia. Jean-Marc Barr's "Lovers" isn't the most impressive movie, although I guess that it gives a good look at the status of immigrants in France. If nothing else, the movie has good acting, directing and cinematography. Élodie Bouchez and Sergej Trifunovic do a good job with their roles.

Since Gaga is short for Dragan, what do the Serbs and/or Croats think of Lady Gaga's name? On that subject, Gaaga sounds like the Russian name for The Hague, so how did the movie translate Dragan's nickname in Russian?
