IMAGES DE TUNISIE
صور من تونس

2025 / 35mm & Super 8 / color-b&w / sound / 1S / 15' 00

IMAGES DE TUNISIE reclaims and recontextualizes archival footage from 1940s' newsreels produced by Les Actualités Françaises, and combines it with new footage filmed at the same vernacular architecture sites in the Berber villages of southern Tunisia.
The film functions as a counter-ethnography. Navigating between archive documents and personal images, an interaction unfolds. This interaction becomes the keystone of the film, transforming it into a commentary on the evolution of the medium of cinema, illustrating its ability to redefine narratives.
