type: Clip

A tapestry of intimate stories offers a window into the dreams of youth under a repressive regime.

title: Faya Dayi

title: Файя дайи

overview: Пережевывая листья ката, суфийские имамы погружались в медитативные состояния. Ныне в Эфиопии кат жуют повсеместно: неприхотливое растение, вытеснившее с харарских склонов кофейные деревья, помогает расслабиться или забыться.

title: Faya Dayi

overview: D’après la tradition soufie, si l’on mâche le khat, une feuille verte aux vertus stimulantes, on trouve le chemin vers l’éternité. Ce premier film de Jessica Beshir est un voyage dans les montagnes d’Éthiopie où le khat est devenu une culture répandue et lucrative. Entre légende et réalité, Faya Dayi raconte l’histoire d’un peuple qui vit de cette feuille minuscule mais puissante.

title: Faya Dayi

overview: La película es un viaje a las tierras altas de la Región Harar inmerso en los rituales del khat, una hoja que los musulmanes sufíes mastican para sus meditaciones religiosas cuyo cultivo es en la actualidad el más lucrativo de Etiopía. A partir del comercio de esta planta, la película teje un tapiz de historias íntimas de personas atrapadas entre la violenta represión gubernamental, las fantasías inducidas por el khat y los engañosos viajes más allá de sus fronteras, ofreciendo una oportunidad a los sueños de los jóvenes que anhelan una vida mejor.

title: Room 11, Ethiopia Hotel

overview: The film recounts the life of children living on the street in Gondar, Ethiopia, by witnessing the interaction between two children and the filmmaker. The entire film was shot in the room of Ethiopia Hotel. This limited space allows the film to focus on their communication and captures some of the ideas that enable the children to endure and survive on the street. Indeed, this film is more a sensitive testimony than a scientific documentary. This hybrid approach aims to explore new trends in visual anthropology, including the issue of dealing with intimacy and subjectivity.
