Under the Fig Trees. by Sehiri, Erige,film director.; Fdhili, Ameni,actor.; Fdhili, Feten,actor.; Fdhili, Fide,actor.; Ben, Hneya,actor.; Ouhebi, Leila,actor.; Sifi, Samar,actor.; Film Movement (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Ameni Fdhili, Feten Fdhili, Fide Fdhili, Hneya Ben Elhedi Sbahi, Leila Ouhebi, Samar SifiOriginally produced by Film Movement in 2021.On a hot summer day, a crew of workers - men and women, young and old - arrive at dawn at a picturesque fig orchard in northwest Tunisia. We eavesdrop, through the sun-dappled leaves of the fig trees, on the young women stealing away precious moments from the foreman's watchful gaze. Meanwhile, the older women, tasked with the careful job of packing the tender fruit, watch and reminisce together as well. They joke, argue, debate, gossip, flirt, all the while painting an unhurried but riveting portrait of everyday life in the rural society, where class, gender, and circumstance often don't allow for such personal freedoms. Set over the course of a single day, and with a cast made up of an intergenerational ensemble of non-professional actors, UNDER THE FIG TREES is "an elegant, understated tapestry of complex interactions [and] a pleasurable and immersive experience" (The Hollywood Reporter) that ultimately reveals the ways in which sisterhood itself becomes an act of resistance.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Green Border. by Holland, Agnieszka,film director.; Djanati, Behi,actor.; Altawil, Jalal,actor.; Ostaszewska, Maja,actor.; Wlosok, Tomasz,actor.; Kino Lorber (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Behi Djanati Atai, Jalal Altawil, Maja Ostaszewska, Tomasz WlosokOriginally produced by Kino Lorber in 2023.In the treacherous and swampy forests that make up the so-called “green border” between Belarus and Poland, refugees from the Middle East and Africa are lured by government propaganda promising easy passage to the European Union. Unable to cross into Europe and unable to turn back, they find themselves trapped in a rapidly escalating geopolitical stand-off. An unflinching depiction of the migrant crisis captured in stark black-and-white, this riveting film explores the intractable issue from multiple perspectives: a Syrian family fleeing ISIS caught between cruel border guards in both countries; young guards instructed to brutalize and reject the migrants; and activists who aid the refugees at great personal risk.Thirty years after Europa Europa, three-time Oscar® nominee Agnieszka Holland brings a masterful eye for realism and deep compassion to this blistering critique of a humanitarian calamity that continues to unfold. Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the 2023 Venice Film Festival, GREEN BORDER is a poignant and essential work of cinema that opens our eyes and speaks to the heart, challenging viewers to reflect on the moral choices that fall to ordinary people every day.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
