Global Media Makers Screening: Look at Me
Don’t miss the Q&A…
After you register for this screening, be sure to register for the follow-up event, Global Media Makers Q&A: Look at Me, featuring a conversation with director Nejib Belkadhi. (Monday, October 5 – 10:00 am PT)
Film Independent Members and guests are invited to a special showcase celebrating the voices of our Global Media Makers Fellows, with a spotlight on seven stories by seven filmmakers from Egypt, India, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Tunisia and Turkey.
A partnership between Film Independent and the US Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, Global Media Makers is a cultural exchange program that fosters relationships and collaboration between American and international film professionals. Global Media Makers has served more than 1,000 filmmakers from 14 different countries from the Arab world, Turkey, and South Asia.
At the core of Global Media Makers (GMM) is the pursuit of building a bridge between filmmakers from diverse regions of the world, and sharing the human experience through film and television. The films included in this showcase are by filmmakers who attended a six-week residency in Los Angeles where they forged connections with American film professionals. Now, we are excited to share their powerful stories with you as we look to one another – here in the US and around the world – for support and solidarity during these difficult times.
Lotfi, a Tunisian migrant living in France, goes back to Tunisia after his wife has a stroke to retrieve his autistic son and place him in an institution. Back home, he is not only confronted with his newly found paternity, but also with his son’s autism. And, it’s through a small video camera that his son slowly opens up to him.
2018, 97 minutes, color | Written & Directed by Nejib Belkadhi
