QUAND LE VENT TISSE LES FLEURS (When the Wind Weaves Flowers)
(2003) dir Bania Medjbar w/Véronique Ruggia, Moussa Maskri [24 min]
Ignoring the world around him and being forgotten by the world seems to be what Mouss wants. Maybe to hide the wounds of the past. Then there’s Lollita, who disappears and reappears without rhyme or reason, while awaiting authorization to stay in this country, close to the man she loves.
SOUS LE BLEU (Under the Overalls)
(2004) dir David Oelhoffen w/Nicolas Giraud, Patrick Bonnel, Yves Verhoeven [21 min]
A man persuades a young mechanic to sell him his work overalls for a fancy dress party. The father of the mechanic, employed in the same garage, witnesses this transaction by chance. He is appalled that his son has accepted the deal. He takes him aside and a quarrel breaks out.
JE M’APPELLE (My Name Is)
(2001) dir Stéphane Elmadjian w/Féodor Atkine, Michel Debrane [17 min]
Portraits of men who have been the victims of acts of violence, thus denouncing the brutality of Western societies in the 20th century. These men of all ages and nationalities describe the severity of their condition. All of them have experienced the same thing: oppression.
