Köy (The village)

DOCUMENTARY
Amidst all the troubles in education occurring in Turkey lies a free and strong-willed village on the mountains of the Aegean coast. This is Nesin Mathematics Village, which was opened in 2007 as an autonomous institution. Its sole purpose was to introduce pure maths to young students, who are used to learning mathematical formulas by heart. Young director Tülay Dikenoğlu Süer delivers the testimony of an experiment that is still going on despite coercitive measures and the will of government to forbide such an alternative institution which attracts hundreds of students every summer.

Douvan jou ka leve (Le jour se lèvera) - french version

DOCUMENTAIRE
What does it mean to be Haitian today? How can we overcome this stagnation at all levels in Haitian society? What is this "disease of the soul" that is eating away at my people? I was born in a poor neighbourhood. Today, I am 31 years old, I am an actress and a director. Based on my personal journey, marked by my mother's mental illness - an illness which she says is a curse of the invisible world - and my own quest for identity, I want to offer a new look at my native island and its inhabitants.
