Elle m'a sauvée
Tony
Threatened and beaten by her ex-husband for many months, Julie Douib, 34, mother of two young children, had gone to file a complaint many times. On March 3, 2019, Julie was shot by her ex-partner in L'île Rousse in Haute-Corse. On the night of 16 to 17 April 2018, after several years of domestic violence, Laura Rapp finally found the courage to file a complaint: her spouse tried to strangle her in front of their two-year-old daughter. After a year of pre-trial detention for attempted homicide, her ex-spouse is released pending trial.

You Will Be My Ally
In this gripping short drama, Domé, a young woman from Gabon who speaks flawless French, is apprehended at the airport on her way into Belgium. She says she’s a French citizen—a businesswoman on her way to meet with suppliers. Border control agents say she’s lying and traveling with a stolen passport. Shut in a bare interrogation chamber, Domé faces dehumanizing treatment from accusers, firmly answering the same questions over and over. While left on her own, she can hear cries coming from the next room. Trying to stave off deportation, Domé asks to use the bathroom. There, she carries out a traditional ritual—one which could cost her her life, or give her a chance at a new one. YOU WILL BE MY ALLY is an early work of Rosine Mbakam’s that already shows the themes which have come to inform the award-winning filmmaker’s career.
