“Film Essai” course (Director: Pierre Villemin):

The “Film Essai” workshop is intended for students in the 2nd year of the ART option at ESAL – Metz.

They worked from archives, stories, and contemporary personal experiences to develop film-based narrative processes that have in common a certain way of approaching “reality”. Their words are distinctive, and they expressed themselves using a filmic vocabulary studied throughout the year, either by doing exercises or by watching films by authors such as Alain Cavalier, Robert Cahen, Ismaël Joffroy Chantoudis, Henri François Imbert, Chris Marker, Jafar Panahi, Olivier Smolders, Agnès Varda, Huang Pang Chuan…

VIDEO PROGRAM:

Anboo / Seohyeon Kim / 2021 / 4’14

March 16, 2020. That day everything changed. My life in lockdown is suddenly disturbed by a voice mail from a Korean friend.

Berthe / Lou Musiol / 2021 / 3’25

My grandmother was a witch. After her death, I became one too, like all the women in my family. What is it like to be a witch? What is it like to be a woman? I look for answers through the memory of Berthe. By mixing the time periods and the words of three women who knew her, I try to shed light on the sisterhood that links us.

Comptine d’un autre souvenir (Nursery rhyme of another memory) / Léa Pesant / 2021 / 8’30

Ferdinand Pierre Nicolas Hissette was born on January 9, 1937. Ferdinand likes to garden, he does not like the crows that eat the cherries on his cherry tree. He loves pasta but does not like lemons. Ferdinand had three daughters, two granddaughters and four grandsons. You now know as much about my grandfather as I do.

Le manque partagé (The shared void) / Jisu Lee / 2021 / 5’38

I look at a chair and feel a little affection for it. There is something missing between us. I start a conversation with it to try to “communicate”.
