Director: Michel IONASCU.
Missak MANOUCHIAN, hero of French Resistance, is shot by the Germans in February 1944. Impassioned by Art and Culture, quartered between Reality and Imaginary, History will not leave time to be himself, to live his own life. Testimonys of his comrades in arms bring us today a new lighting on the moral nobility of this important man and on the topicality of his fight.
Director: Marianne Pistone, Gilles Deroo.
Director: NOUREDDINE ZERRAD.
A man is muzzled and sequestered in a basement by a young man.
A story about the past, a path for reconstruction…
But who is really the victim?
Director: Yurok JANG.
In the year 1999,
Jean, a 10-year-old boy, is in love with a girl in his class, but does not dare tell her.
One day, Jean is surprised by her by making a "some gesture", what a shame!
For him, it's the end of the world.
Director: Serena Dykman.
At 22, filmmaker Serena Dykman had always known that her maternal grandmother, Maryla Michalowski-Dyamant, was an Auschwitz survivor, but she never dared or cared to inquire more about the Nana she had lost at 11. But after witnessing the terrorist attacks in Paris and Brussels, Serena decides to read her grandmother’s memoir and makes a startling discovery: More than simply a survivor, Maryla is revealed as a woman who devoted her life to fighting intolerance. Inspired, Serena embarks on a journey with her mother, Alice, and a film crew to retrace Maryla’s life, from her native town of Bedzin, Poland; to the horrors of Auschwitz, where she served as Dr. Mengele’s translator; to Brussels, where she emigrated after the war. Mother and daughter assume Maryla’s voice, reading excerpts of the memoir in front of key places from Nana’s past. As they encounter those who knew Maryla, it becomes clear that she touched countless people. Publicly speaking to new generations about her experience in the camps, Maryla strove to ensure that the horrors of the Holocaust would be neither forgotten nor repeated. The unexpected arrival of more than 100 hours of footage of Serena’s grandmother further enhances the portrait of Maryla, with the videos revealing her extraordinary personality, incredible strength, and inimitable sense of humor. Although a highly personal film, “Nana” also speaks to larger issues: the transgenerational weight of trauma and the necessity of Holocaust testimony continuing to be heard in the 21st century — a world where survivors are about to disappear and anti-Semitism and intolerance are on the rise.

a girl is haunted by her stereotyped knowledge about africans
Director: Arnaud GAUTIER.
It is the story of Sarah and of her son Noé, over the course of one day.
There is an absent husband, a slightly tongue-tied son somewhere between childhood and adolescence… And then there is the mother. She is young, she holds up as best she can, but we can tell she doesn’t quite manage, that being a mother isn’t such a natural thing for her…
So they both stand there staring at each other in this imposed face-off.
Time enough for Sarah to open her eyes and see herself truly, and admit herself her weakness.
For if the future remains uncertain, this long day will still enable them to gather their two solitudes, to sketch out a connection.
Director: Pierre Yves Clouin.
