              In 1962, René Vautier, together with some Algerian friends, organized an audiovisual formation center to encourage a “dialogue in images” between the two factions. A film was edited from that experience, but the French police partially destroyed it. The images that were saved represent an unprecedented historical document: They tell of the Algerian War and the history of the ALN (National Liberation Army), as well as showing life after the war and, particularly, the reconstruction of the cities and the countryside after the war of Independence. It is the first film from independent Algeria Dirección y fotografía | Réalisation et image | Directors and cinematographers René Vautier Ahmed Rachedi Nacer Guenifi Héléna Sanchez Sidi Boumédienne Mohamed Guennez Allal Yahiaoui Mohamed Bouamari André Dumaître Taïbi Mustapha Bellil

              Natalya's laundrette is really simple: four washing machines in a row, a few dryers, some plants and a TV set to sep her company. Natalia is Russian, she was born in the USSR, but now her country belongs to Kazakhstan. She left her homeland nearly ten years ago to settle down in Buenos Aires with her whole family. She was running away from post socialism; of its unemployment and its violence. Before the Perestroika, Natalya was an accountant. When she arrived to Argentina, she couldn't find a job and she decided to set up her own business. However, she's still not quite enjoying this new way of life, she misses the socialist times. According to her it was the “best system in the world”, everybody had work and holidays. In fact, she dreams of a better life...that is why she took part in a great draw on the internet.

              Paris Couleurs, a compilation of archival film material, deals with the image of the migrant in cinema and television throughout the century. From ”Zoos Humains” to the mythical ”Black-Blanc-Beur” of the year 1998, the film follows a history of representation, clichés and stereotypes. With this film Pascal Blanchard and Eric Deroo present a new audiovisual version of their research program “from the native to the immigrant” and their point of view of the relation between colonial history and the history of immigration.

              A prison on the island of Nisida, in Naples, is home to 40 adolescents aged between 14 and 21. The kids design masks to hide their identities during the shooting of the film. It is this very facet which contributes to establishing an increasingly intimate rapport with three of the inmates – Enzo, Rosario and Samir, confronted by prison life, invite us to share their daily routine of school and work, boredom and captivity. They also recount their stories and share their moments of hope and disappointment. If the objective of their punishment is, as stated in the Constitution, re-education, the film questions the compatibility between learning and imprisonment.
