A total solo. In the center of a huge space, alone on a constantly shrinking stage, Jeanne Added engages in a hand-to-hand ballet with the camera. With Both Sides, Jeanne Added has invented a pure performance by sculpting her playing space into this huge white stage, suspended in the middle of nothing. Alone, without any pomp, the artist gives herself over completely to her vocals and dancing. An allegory of the dance floor, of a space that, by shrinking, opens itself up to immensity; or the struggle of a solitary figure, who fights while dancing, as the ground moves beneath her feet. The film of this live performance is unusual: a visual confrontation, a powerful musical battle, the pared-back presentation invites the spectator to share a unique experience. Exuding a singular and unique charm, this “living UFO” gives us an unprecedented perception of Jeanne’s intense music.
A beautifully shot documentary of Savages performing at the iconic Paris venue, La Cigale.
Meeting of two greats, Cissé's tribute to the dean of African cinema is without discours, without pathos. It is the one returned by his mini camera, which attends the funeral ceremonies that marked the departure of Ousmane Sembene in Dakar, and finds the relatives of Sembene in the house he had built in Yoff, directly on rocks beaten by the ocean. These simple and close images, with a distance from the ceremonial that Sembene would have appreciated, those briefly borrowed from his films and archives, weave a film full of friendship and fraternity.
