History

Going by the name of Djurjura, Djouhra Abouda started a musical career combining women’s voices with Kabyle cultural claims in the early 1970. She began working as a filmmaker with Algérie couleurs (1970-1972) and Cinécité (1973-1974), both kaleidoscopic collages co-directed with Alain Bonnamy within the experimental film lab of Vincennes University.

Claudine Eizykman with VITESSE WOMEN, presents a torrent, dazzling film that intersects several sequences according to various rhythms, sometimes close to the perceptive thresholds, allowing the deregulation of the senses desired by Rimbaud, opening the way to another mode of perception. —Michel Nuridsany, Le Figaro
