A screening organised in partnership with Aflam, Arab cinemas, as part of the Africa2020 Season. With the support of the Euro-Mediterranean Cooperation Department of the Southern Region.
Aflam and the Festival make their films: a selection echoing the Festival's programme devised by the Aflam association and the Marseille Festival as part of the Africa2020 Season in conversation with the dancer and choreographer Selma Ouissi and the filmmaker Tamer El Said. Shot before the pandemic imposed confinement on everyone, the films chosen speak of the aspiration to change and the ruptures that follow. They touch on the experience of leaving, of the absence of the other, which virtual communication never manages to fill, and also look back at the uprisings that have been taking place over the last ten years. Founded twenty years ago in Marseille, the Aflam association works to disseminate and promote Arab cinema to all audiences, to discover little-known films, to share views and to open up spaces for discussion.

2019 | Tunisie / France
A soldier on mission in the Tunisian desert gets a leave after his mother dies. He never returns to the barracks. A young woman who has just moved into a luxurious villa with her husband learns that she is pregnant. One day she goes for a walk in the forest alone. She never returns. Two characters, two anonymous beings that everything separates, are going to meet.
