Framer Framed
Boom Operator
A group of Black filmmakers and actors are reenacting the board meeting of a community cinema. A letter of complaint has been addressed to the cinema. It revives the tensions about the appropriate behavior towards a group of Black men who occupies the lobby of the building during the day, while the cinema is showing a film about the situation of these undocumented workers. This letter is asking how the institution is really committed to social change beyond the films they screen?

Le Hérisson Noir
Director
To begin with, the short opens up the anti-racist struggle by means of investigating the reporting of a cake that’s on display in a bakery window. By appealing to the cinema's judgement and creating a space where all voices can be heard, the film looks for a way to encourage dialogue and re-evaluate certain controversial images.
