a society around. women rule differently than men and what do they do that with their power. and how sustainable is this culture. to the solutions of the wrangel started march 8th d.w. . painful to see so many people leave the country now because they just don't see any future here anymore. is the time history where we could do it if we fail it's us failing but it still needs a lot of energy to. making

films against the roofs creating images that have never existed before highlighting problems that's what filmmaking is about for many young people we've met a lot of them over the years in the knowledge talents program which always takes place at the same time as the bun in international film festival bringing together over 200 up and coming filmmakers from in live little one. and we caught up with 4 of them again and then. high shows coca from sir john. constantine song and christopher own from germany and lebanon. and rubaiyat hosain from time to dash.

he wants to make films for his people. we met him in berlin in february when it was freezing cold and he was visiting friends i'm taking a break from the stress of. everything in terms of the data ship you can never be your true self so you never know what your identity is so i feel like for us to become really who we are as a people we need this freedom we need this space and we need to be able to play and i feel like our culture is cinema is that space for us to play to try to understand who we are and to show it to ourselves when we 1st met in 2016 it was living in the middle of a war zone in the nuba mountains and south sudan participated in the balun on a tolerance program after making the award winning documentary beats of the antonov

. and it's a film about music identity. you know about the war using music so within that i can stream music and cause your own daily life and cause it on people in the book the. move to the nuba mountains and 2012 there's a war between the government and ethnic groups fighting for independence and the right to that own cultural identity. it was a war for resources self-determination and over the role of religion. you scared like you naturally scared everybody around you scared everybody's running into foxholes there's a moment when you come out that you. you want to make sure everybody's ok there is

that moment of fear but as soon as you notice everybody is ok then there's that moment of extreme happiness like. the basque documentary ordinance award at the 2014 toronto film festival. before moving to the nuba mountains he had lived in new york but he gave up his secure existence to support his people so i was living in brooklyn i had my fixie bike that i love and it's an easy life is nice fun is very creative but my work there doesn't matter while the simple thing of being in a war zone just my presence makes a difference. walked as a wall chronicle or organized theater workshops and set up an artist's collective in 2018 he made his 1st fiction film an antiwar comedy a cache is about

a soldier and his girlfriend lena after they spend the night together at none gets into trouble when lena becomes jealous with some leave. you know within the shock of. not. the director sean to film with a small team and carry on without running which i don't want to electricity it premiered at the 2018 venice film festival when we 1st started making the film it was a film that we were making for ourselves we felt we need we knew we had that need for coming together and celebrating and this is what i discovered from my 1st documentary be said that enough so with a question we wanted to create a film that had the backdrop of war but still had enough humor and life and what

not and questioning of revolution and what he means there it means a lot to us and it was amazing that the film also ended up in huge festivals and went around. mad constantine voc and christopher own when they participated in the $29.00 team talents program they'd worked together on the international coproduction half an hour constantine boxcars editor and crist of our own as cinematographer. parts for spotlight on people fighting for their survival for children in the slums of beirut like 12 year old zane. it was the moment when you realize that the fiction that we're doing that the reality is surpassing the fiction that we're doing and that made everyone realize how important this fictionalized version that we're creating here is and that these topics do need to be talked about children without

a childhood. you would see those goods on the streets everywhere you would see families also between lanes and on the highway you're just used to ignore them you just treat them like or. like ghosts that don't exist but they're everywhere. the nonprofessional actors were plucked from the streets and much of the film was shot from them perspective. it was not so much the story. but the wrong direct and truthful way of telling the story that made the film so exceptional in 2018 it won the jury prize at the cannes film festival and in 2019 it was nominated for an oscar. it's easy to blame people but it's much harder to understand why they act the way that they act what is wrong with the system that makes them act this way how were they brought up. we caught up with them again this year but not together. cover now may not have won

the past foreign film oscar 2 years ago but the nomination propelled back arrears forward and crist of our own won the german cinematography of constantine bach is currently in beirut conducting research while christopher is on flight of ventura they were both invited to join the academy of motion picture arts and sciences after the oscar nomination that the whole experience in l.a. for us was a door opener even beyond the academy what it meant 1st and foremost and this is very important to us there to get a foot in the door is that we signed with an amazing agency there and they set up a lot of meetings and they really encouraged us to take that step and especially for you chris i get scripts. from across the world at the moment. which is what they would have been looking for last summer he was the

cinematographer for the international coproduction a man who sold his skin newsier submitted it as its entry for the best foreign film oscar and it made the shortlist of dean films. that this is a love story that begins in syria some early is in love with a beer i am out of town one of the guys i don't know why it's so difficult when the harry. fellow had a party and britney said look. what did you was up eyes away like that sounds naive calling for revolution mulcahy's on during the police were hunted down forcing him to flee to laugh or not while a year stays behind marries a diplomat and moves to belgium will some ever see her again. an artist

offers a promising solution and sam becomes a living canvas. my soul. i want your back. so there are a lot of data on. top of the music and she was sorry early summer. but i like the idea of turning a body and what it means to that person. to become abusers and that's going to just throw me away. with my. exploring new oriel. up biting satire. and travel around the world. or this could be luke and dole so will. this work with. the signature of the day or. we had that idea of having each see look like a bathing and have the film be like

a gallery or museum you walking onto and looking at those different pieces of art so the so the idea was to have it seen completely different. so we created those scenes that from each other but also all of them connected and i was. like my biggest scarcer thing this movie was that at the end it turns out like a music video because it's all not. because of. a deceitful art world staged an officially lush fashion the critically acclaimed film celebrated its premiere at the venice film festival it also stars monica bellucci as the cynical gallery owner. scuse me. this part of the expedition to the us

what is it i almost feel like you guys were sort of like subconsciously inspired by the artist. in real life even though why are he tattooed a real guy the work is called him he he turned this human being into a piece of art which inspired to write the script and i feel like yeah that twisted innocence is still in how you guys translated that you know with your visual beauty and the wickedness of the script while christopher was busy shooting a coproduction in the summer of 2020 constantine box was in beirut on august the 4th 2020 the same day the 2750 tons of ammonium nitrate exploded in the port. he witnessed a nightmare up close. and then this

mushroom appeared out of nowhere and it took a few seconds before the shockwave hit us but. you know i think the scariest thing was not knowing what's going on as the what the what does this mean for the war or someone attacking more of what was happening or just so poor thing didn't realize what was going on. months later and it's still unclear who is to blame for this horrific catastrophe but many blame the politicians and have lost faith in the state. case it would.

young people in particular don't see a future in beirut or levanon anymore constantine back in to take the video of his musician friends think of the structure really goes beyond the physical the structure had really destroyed something and people and. our friends our family in their hearts and souls and that the structure is much much harder to fix it and even possible than the physical the structure of. constantine bach wants to process the images he's interrupted research on a project and together with the lebanese woman he's developing the script for both tanks beirut and dark satire takes aim at the widespread corruption in the country it's a film from the fashion scene that tries to highlight the corruption and nepotism behind the beautiful veneer financial support for the development of the screenplay has already been approved in germany. constantine bank plans to shoot in beirut in

2 years. if we want to help in any way it's by telling stories from here and it's also by making a film here and employing our friends in the in the film industry and i have you know bringing there's so much talent here so the best thing we can do is make something shoot. i think that it's remarkable that you know small ya know and they're carried that well now horry county made in bangladesh tells the story of shima a seamstress working in a factory and accident accounts. a colleague dies

and shima realizes how defenseless the workers are. not that much other than an. outdoors on a few others have been to get. all stored to the stylish hold it all to the selling. point then that i'm going to bounce out of i don't know if i should have if it's not a guy there's a reason why it was. only the women can help themselves you know why don't be suitable. for the shop on just up and a bit of color in that i think they should wear acma filled with. this thought provoking statement by the activist sinks in and a few she was angered she decides to form a union it's based on a true story that of seamstresses dalia director ruby at hussein matter while researching the textile industry when i met her she immediately expects to interest

and i am certain that her life story is also a chimera. that leaving more when you're 12 and coming to the city already says something about this young woman that she wanted to keep you know she will fight and that's what i've been really track of course the planet squared we shared with her she was in the rehearsal with our actors she daughter actors love to operate the saw in the scene so we all of us became friends even the actors and danielle and zoe i wanted to tell the story together fact that when i asked her in a film dalia convinced walkers to form a union if we don't like this and it gives an oz it is either going. to effect to the what i read on a love one another 11 thought of or not and i'm a. little. more feeling i mean i never get it

i. was there when if things got difficultly people say it was in their chaps are the boss finding out. that when lawson lay down he has said that her friends turn into her enemies because then they're like no i don't want to lose my job because it's after people are managed to feed my children to lean on a happy. ending these men and these young women are very much aware they're right but maybe a lot of their do not have it in their to fight to the end. you know a decent meal leader. who buy into a saying spent 2 years researching before filming in bangladesh she likes working with women both in front of the camera and behind it the director also spends time in the us but our work focuses on her home country she works with n.g.o.s meets

workshops for women and trains female directors she's also creating an initiative to prevent domestic violence by at hussein's film premiered at the toronto film festival and was shown in locarno one of the door to one of the i don't know and god enough it was just i got it. thanks to a young woman's courage the 1st garment workers union was founded and registered against the arts so i think it's happening you know very women's way this way is happening you know all of. us. activists. back to director coca his comedy are cash has fun with clichés and is that. something

a really wanted to make sure is to show that the. idea of war and how ludicrous war is. sure an issue in june and i live in a number of. you very loud men grace through 5 men and women maybe as a visionary who. allows that they're not going over it and i wanted to make sure that we don't just keep having this heroic idea of war and war this amazing thing and to become a man and become. a hero and do you know you can go to war so it's i wanted to destroy that but at the same time i wanted to again make it sure that the cause is real so is so that balance of the bar fighting for real rights and all that at the same time fighting is a really dumb crazy thing that hopefully wars will stop so i wanted all that to be played with. shoots during the rainy season when the fighting stops

residents of the nuba mountain villages take part in the filming. and i think it. was my. last there's a happy ending at 9 remorsefully returns to lena but he has to learn that women are much stronger than he thought. but. i'm set know so what i get it. lebanese cinematographer christopher has enjoyed working with women on films like the satirical drama the man who saw his skin it was a big success for him thanks to an intensive collaboration with writer director counter ban honey from tunisia in 2021 the film will net christopher another

nomination for the german cinematography prime's. i deserve the feeling they want to go. no question. and they want to get to that answer and there's something. that doesn't mean the way they approach there and i just feel like being there and fighting for that. right now he's on the island of white of and toward his latest film copilot will premiere at the burnin international film festival he and director under sort of better shape are preparing. it's very atmospheric but it could be anything. the film portrays a love story between 2 students as lee and sayit once i eat suddenly disappears his family comes after hazily but the 2 have sworn to keep their secrets he's tell me.

when was the best bank's website if. i was i don't live here you know how i don't know in my films and i don't quite know what cameramen you keep you kind of dancing with the actors kind of and they need to work together very. this is the. this is. the who goes from here. i know you can trust the sense of claustrophobia like in a small stage play it for me to think. this is for by is beneath me phenomenal. come here is played be here. with ideas like. that. as they prepare for the film's world premiere christopher are noon and and are sore

about a shay are choosing press photos. meanwhile in berlin kooker is recovering from a stressful time in sudan a lot has changed that the civil war has eased but it's a fragile peace destruction as nick tensions and high levels of corruption a slowing development efforts for years the filmmakers supported the revolution taking to the streets among thousands of others since 2018 there's been an apparent break in the fighting but there's still no calm in sudan the country remains torn apart it's exhausting and not just for. his hopes of a new beginning have been dashed at the end of last year he was arrested because of a theatre workshop in which women took part that displays the religiously minded police. it took an outcry from international filmmakers to get her released from

prison. on the steps of getting into real peace but we're struggling with new things new things we're struggling with a technocrat government that can't really deal with running the government alongside this military and the national security and the remainder of the old regime with all mentality with the old mind shift. so now where we're set we're like we could do it is that is the tie in to dance history where we could do it if we fail it's us failing but it still needs a lot of energy to go forward i sure isn't giving up he's planning a film about the odyssey of african people trying to reach europe a form of african road trip. despite the challenges these filmmakers well all continue to make films in that unique white.
