Yep the AFI Silver Docs fest is now sadly called that in honor of Audi of course; I was just asking about the AFI's separate fest:
May 2–July 1 Hailed by many as the most important of contemporary French filmmakers, Olivier Assayas has made more than 20 films across a diversity of genres, including features, documentaries and shorts.
He directed Irma Vep and Carlos and others (and includes Sonic Youth, John Cale & Pixies music on the soundtrack in some--says the blurb), and that controversial one Stevie says to skip (soulds like good advice).
