France - 2017 - 83 min - Original French version, English subtitles We the unquiet is a collective cinema experience that takes place in a therapeutic reception centre in Reims (in the East of France). The film offers an indirect self-portrait of the Artaud center in which patients and staff play along in order to give a more human picture of madness. With the advent of the DSM-5 (classification of mental disorders) and a tendency of psychiatry to think of the illness in terms of symptoms rather than focusing on the human point of view, the Artaud centre poses as an alternative.
Sculpter la mémoire nous invite au cœur de la création d’une œuvre de la sculptrice Cécile Raynal. Le temps d’une semaine, l’artiste se rend chaque jour chez Pierre Rolinet, 98 ans, pour faire émerger d’un bloc de terre, un portrait de cet homme, rescapé du camp de concentration Natzweiler-Struthof. Pierre a des choses à dire, il ne viendra jamais à bout de son expérience dans les camps. Cécile l’écoute en modelant la terre. Avec tendresse, la caméra observe cet échange, le récit de l’homme, les gestes de la femme et la naissance d’une œuvre qui inscrira pour longtemps le regard de Pierre dans nos mémoires.
Poland, France, Ukraine - 2023 - 84 minutes - french and english subtitles A Polish van travels the roads of Ukraine. On board, Maciek Hamela evacuates people fleeing their country since the Russian invasion. The vehicle becomes an ephemeral refuge, a zone of trust and confidences for people who are leaving everything behind and have only one goal left: to find a chance at life for themselves and their children.
In the Rearview is a collective portrait composed of an array of experiences of Ukrainians who share a single goal: finding a safe haven in the throes of conflict. With temporary asylum granted to all passengers, their differences in gender, age, skin tone, physical condition, origin, identity, worldviews and faith become irrelevant. While the war itself remains in the backdrop, its reflection and impact are evident and raw.
Behind the postcard images of Martinique lies a more complex reality. Through different places and characters, the film takes an attentive but discreet look at the difficult reconstruction of the fragile ties that bind us to existence, and which are sometimes put to a severe test.
For a few years now, Pierre, my father, has been suffering from a forgetting disease. Before everything fades away, we decide to take advantage of the time that remains to look at each other and talk as never before.
With his characteristic poetic language, Pierre tries to unravel the threads of a complex history of illness in which our relationship is caught in spite of ourselves. As my requests and the urgency that presses on, it's a whole filial relationship that is reinvented in every moment, with its complexities, its joys and its flashes. A path to rediscovered joy
