Anissa Kaki is a 30-year-old Parisian theatre-maker, and Algerian Takia's granddaughter. In a piece based on her childhood memories, she evokes her grandmother's world. Whilst imitating how Takia prepared her mahjouba, she talks about the latter's smell and flavour – lent to it by grandmother's hands – which changed when they started to lose their strength.

On the roads of Corsica, Safia runs away and meets Jade. A journey of initiation in which Safia must reinvent her relationship with her native land and learn to live for herself, beyond the gaze and perhaps in spite of those she loves.

MovieDocumentary

Three rugby girls question their own prejudices and those of their social circles towards female and male attributes in our society. All along the film we follow their locker room talks, their sport practice as well as their compromises mixing both coquettish touches and mudded knees. Without any use of speeches or theories, these teenage girls definitely offer us another way of being girls.
