Always attentive to Lebanon, a country friendly to France for two thousand years, we are overwhelmed by the latest tragedy that has struck the country.
We send a thought to all of these French-speaking people and more particularly for our filmmaker friends who have been coming to Vesoul for 27 years to present their films, from Dima Al Joundi (Fica documentary audience award 2007 and Fica 2020) to Joana Hadjithomas, from Elias Khlat to Mai Masri, from Milka Assaf to the immense Jocelyne Saab (Medal of La Francophonie Fica 2009), who died last year. The works of Nadine Labaki, Philippe Aractingi, Danielle Arbid, Randa Chahal Sabbag, Ghassam Salhab, Jean Chamoun, Ziad Doueri, Assad Fouladkar (Fica 2002 public fiction award), Jacques Debs, Nicolas Damuni, Emir Kreideih, … have, also, been presented at Fica Vesoul.
