Article 26 – Where one of the authors refuses to complete his contribution to an audiovisual work or is unable to complete this contribution owing to a force majeure, he may not oppose the use, for the purpose of completing the work, of the already completed part of the said contribution. For this contribution he shall have the status of author and shall enjoy the rights deriving therefrom.
