- 2014, Cairo. Marshal Sissi took power in Egypt. Hana, a young French-Iraqi woman has lived there for nine years. She gave up activism. It's a time of disillusionment. I met her in Brussels six years earlier. Extremely activist, she organized conferences to inform western people about what happened in Iraq under US occupation. Trying to defend a country, which she couldn't return to, she felt like a prisoner of an oppressive actuality. In January 2011, I join her in Cairo when the revolution is about to break out. The unprecedented movement unfolding in the following days will change everything for Hana. And it is for political reasons that she will leave activism. A portrait of a young woman through time, traversed by politics. Kairos looks for intimate resonances of an historical event that was followed all over the world.
- During the summer in Kustavi, a little Finnish village, the sun never sets. A young woman invited me to the place she was raised. She went there to confront the silence that she had fled some years earlier. Little by little, between the two of us, a third character appears: a thief. My mother always wrote in secret. At fifty years old, she breaks the long silence and publishes her first book. We go back to the origin of her speech, forty years earlier. What did she lose by coming out of the silence ? Kustavi is a "documentary-novel" whose voice over, written in Alexandrians, transforms it into an investigation. We discover the dispossession once it has already taken everything away. Three existential quests come together little by little. What happened in Kustavi ?
