Le temps qu'il reste

Aug 12, 2009
Film en partie autobiographique, construit en quatre épisodes marquants de la vie d’une famille, ma famille, de 1948 au temps récent. “Ce film est inspiré des carnets de mon père lorsqu’il était un combattant résistant en 1948, et des lettres de ma mère aux membres de sa famille qui furent forcés de quitter le pays. Mêlant mes souvenirs intimes d’eux et avec eux, le film dresse le portrait de la vie quotidienne de ces palestiniens qui sont restés vivre sur leurs terres natales et ont été étiquetés “Arabes- Israéliens”, vivant comme une minorité dans leur propre pays.” Elia Suleiman

7 jours à la Havane

Apr 05, 2012
Instantané de la Havane d’aujourd’hui : un portrait contemporain d’une ville éclectique à travers un film composé de 7 chapitres réalisés par Benicio del Toro, Pablo Trapero, Julio Medem, Elia Suleiman, Gaspar Noé, Juan Carlos Tabío et Laurent Cantet. À travers leurs différentes sensibilités, origines et styles cinématographiques, ils ont saisi l’énergie et la vitalité qui rendent cette ville unique. Certains réalisateurs ont eu le désir de croiser la réalité cubaine en prise avec son quotidien, avec le regard d’étrangers loin de leurs repères. D’autres ont choisi l’immersion totale et se sont inspirés de la vie de la population locale. Chaque chapitre raconte une journée de la semaine, à travers le quotidien d’un personnage différent. Loin des clichés, ce film a pour vocation de faire résonner l’âme de cette ville hétéroclite au fil des quartiers, des ambiances, des générations et des cultures.

Nelson Mandela et moi

Nov 23, 2013
À sa mort en décembre 2013, Nelson Mandela a été unanimement salué pour la lutte qu’il a menée contre l’apartheid, depuis ses années de combat au sein de l’ANC jusqu’à sa libération triomphale en 1990 après vingt-sept ans de prison, puis son élection en 1994 à la présidence de la République après une difficile transition démocratique. Pourtant, son parcours ne cesse d’intriguer : à sa libération, où est passée la colère de Madiba ? Sa propension à pardonner aux acteurs de l’apartheid aurait-elle fait plus de mal que de bien à son pays ?

This highly kinetic tableaux of uprooted sights and sounds works most earnestly to expose the racial biases concealed in familiar images. Relying on valuable snippets from feature films such as "Exodus", "Lawrence of Arabia", "Black Sunday", "Little Drummer Girl", and network news shows, the filmmakers have constructed an oddly wry narrative, mimicking the history of Mid East politics.
