A day that could be a life. A nightmare that could also be a dream. In Tunisia -and perhaps it could be elsewhere- on the border between the necessity and the fear of making a film, the necessity and the fear of revolution, how can you think about the future when you cannot be yourself?

This remarkably orchestrated almost-true-story paints the intimate portrait of Sami, an idealist young man who is also lucid about the exotic fantasy he arouses.
 

The screening

This off-the-beaten-path session focuses on boldness and innovation. Whilst cinema is a code-riddled space for expression, it is also a space for creation and freedom, which allows artists to play with images and sound, and make queer and dissident voices heard. These 6 short films are living proof of that. The Xperimental session combines self-assertiveness, revolution and uprising. It will awaken you to your senses and to your very existence in this world.
