Standing on the edge of a well, a man has a rudimentary harness. Camera in hand, he dives and there began a dizzying descent, joined two men who work at the center of the earth. We have to penetrate in the world of traditional puisatier in the lands of Niger. Filmed in the desert countryside of the country, the film reveals the expertise of these men who fight against the sand to reach water and the impact of

It is by chance that I met Maymunah when I was lost in a bus station. Her spontaneity and freedom made me curious.Gradually a real friendship is born between us. Thereafter, I wanted to film the time of a day at the station in turmoil, as close as possible to reality, to try to capture what makes it so special and appealing to my eyes. Unfortunately, it was a partyshe was gone.

2 - 5 Avril 2009 - 17 - 28 Juin 2009

Le FISDN présentons une série de programmes orientés sur 16 pays et régions différentes. Cette section honore une découverte et une exploration de différents espaces et cultures. Le but est de comprendre les spécifiés des situations régional sur le plan existentiel, politique ou social, de reconstruire le relief émotionnel et intellectuel d'une région ou d'un pays pris à part. Dans ce travail critique, nous avons préféré les films qui refusent, dans la forme et dans les moyens d'expression, le recours aux modes normées de la restitution du réel, les films qui résistent à cette période de "globalisation" qui tend à imposer un modèle unique de culture et de moeurs..
