Poster for Réjane dans la tour

1993 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Réjane is a cleaning-woman in one of the tower-building in Val Fourré, a suburb near Paris. Following her, listening to her and watching her in action we learn what it means to be a woman of 45 and hanging by a thread. Balancing delicately between her crazy but charming personality, the barriers of poverty and unemployment, Rejane, a bit lost, smiles and moves away dancing "There is no problem !" We are sad at heart to be so close and so far from her.

Poster for I Am Too Sexy for My Body, for My Bo-ody

2012 · ★ 0.0 (0)

"In the summer of 1969, the first and memorable Panafrican Festival of Algiers (Panaf of its small name) had brought together, assembled from all over Africa, musicians, dancers and theater groups, messenger artists from "brother countries", movements from liberation and the diaspora of the Americas. Forty years later, in July 2009, the second edition of this festival took place. During this one, I filmed several dance troupes in rehearsals or performances; the levitated bodies of the dancers, the energy, the grace and the life they give off." (Franssou Prenant)

Brutus led a happy life next to Malenka. Returning home, he knew that he had to scratch the door only once, very quietly, to check whether she was really waiting for him. Sometimes, when she was getting dressed before the mirror, he could see two Malenkas, but after a while he understood that only the one that smelled beautiful was real. 'I belong to her and I will never leave her', he thought. One day, following the order of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, everyone unable to prove their Aryan roots had to return their pets. This was the day when Brutus' life changed completely.
