In the 1930s, Air France carved out a place for itself in French and international cinema. Aviation captivated audiences, aerial photography was emerging as a new visual language, and the airline embraced this spirit of modernity. At the initiative of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry – writer, pilot, artistic advisor and journalist – Air France took part in promotional films and more than ten fictional features, from La Banque Nemo (1934) to Courrier Sud (1936).
