Khartoum
In a world where migrants are increasingly treated as faceless numbers, Khartoum offers a vital and deeply humanising portrayal of five Sudanese people forced to flee war. Filmed entirely on iPhones, the documentary allows its subjects to tell their own stories with honesty and emotion, using roleplay reminiscent of Gestalt therapy to revisit painful memories. At a time when compassion is in short supply, Khartoum reminds us why empathy matters.
L’AFFAIRE AMANDA KNOX
Au-delà du fait divers, The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox explore la construction du mal au féminin. Entre vérité, fiction et regard médiatique, la série redonne chair à une jeune femme que le monde avait déjà condamnée.
