At the end of 2018, the number of exiled families and unaccompanied minors living on the streets of Avignon continued to rise. Faced with this emergency, the Rosmerta collective decided to requisition premises belonging to the diocese that had been uninhabited for several years.

Presentation

Territoires cinématographiques is a space for dialogue between live performance and cinema, devised in conjunction with Avignon's Utopia cinemas. It's a daily programme of film screenings after which the public can meet and talk with directors, choreographers, filmmakers, researchers and critics invited to the Festival d'Avignon. It's a space designed to explore the intimate relationships that these speakers maintain between disciplines and the world. It's a space where we can take a closer look, from the small to the large, at the themes that are brought to life on stage, on screen and under the plane trees of the Café des idées.

By Karine Music // France // 2021 // 1h01

At the end of 2018, the number of exiled families and unaccompanied minors living on the streets of Avignon continued to rise. Faced with this emergency, the Rosmerta collective decided to take over premises that had been uninhabited for several years and belonged to the diocese. The camera follows the unique adventure of this self-managed social and cultural centre.

The screening is followed by a meeting with Karine Music and Ysé Bouhali Bouchet, head of the Uprooted People Commission at Amnesty International France.
