Olivier Assayas, the celebrated French director of “Clouds of Sils Maria” and “Irma Vep,” is making his Berlinale competition debut this year with “ Suspended Time,” his most personal film to date. Narrated by Assayas and woven with archival material, the comedy stars Vincent Macaigne as the director’s alter-ego, Paul, a well-known filmmaker who is confined with his music journalist brother Etienne (Micha Lescot) and their girlfriends Morgane (Nine d’Urso) and Carole (Nora Hamzawi), in their childhood home in the Normandy countryside over a sun-drenched spring. Kristen won a Cesar Award for her supporting role in “Clouds of Sils Maria,” alongside Juliette Binoche, and went on to star in “Personal Shopper,” which also competed at Cannes.
