01: Workshop Making a documentary film from archives with Yasmina Benabdallah
From March 1st to March 30th , 2021
This workshop invites young participants to discover the cinematic potential of family photos and stories, while embracing the fact that they might know some things and not know others. To delve into a family’s past is to delve into their intimacy, but it is also an endeavor that raises political questions. Whether they start with a series of family images, a single one, or the lack of them, the young author begins their quest for a subjective truth, which they will shape into documentary, fiction or even science fiction!
