A partly silent, partly sung film, shot nowadays in the erased footsteps of the Calais Jungle after its destruction. A tribute that doesn’t take a funeral angle, a tribute to the heroism of the displaced populations, driven out of sites at war devastated by the violence of fires. - doclisbona

In the beginning, Elisabeth picked yellow flowers. On the green hill, facing the sea, between a bunker, the glare of the sun, and the radiation from the wars in progress. In these times of confinement we film an hour a day, less than a kilometer away. It's a very old desire to film from home. The flowers, a radioactive yellow, evaporate in the light. And all around, the playful insects vibrate tirelessly. In this landscape under surveillance, there is Paul, an ancient Newfoundlander, struck down by the world to come. Has he left ? Has he disappeared? His dog prowls along the cliffs, between Fécamp and Yport. The sea turns red, we fall into the night.

When Thomas Ostermeier, artistic director of the Schaubühne in Berlin, decided to go to Ramallah in September 2012 to stage Hamlet at the invitation of the Al-Kasaba Theatre, he knew that the Shakespearean verses would find a particular resonance there. The idea of the trip came from intense contact with theatre professionals in Palestine, and most especially with the Freedom Theatre in the refugee camp in Jenin. Under the watchful eye of the film director Nicolas Klotz, the tragedy of the Danish prince intersects with that of young Palestinians. The film is, moreover, a view on another tragedy: the murder of Juliano Mer Khamis, the former director of Freedom Theatre, killed by an unknown assassin in April 2011.

This short film is part of the clandestine dialogues of the Nicolas Klotz and Élisabeth Perceval’s 2015 feature, “Ceremony”.

Blandine arrives at the Charles de Gaulle Airport, seeking a reunion with her husband Papi in Paris. Despite articulate claims for asylum, she is held in a cramped cell along with a number of fellow Africans, humiliated, mistreated and told that they can expect immediate deportation. Papi enquires of her whereabouts at Arrivals, and is met with disinterested, misleading responses. When Blandine is hurt in a skirmish on the runway as the authorities try and force her out of the country, circumstances and a sympathetic employee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs save her from expulsion. She is finally reunited with Papi in a communal squat, its inhabitants sharing harrowing stories of their time in France. With work, money and food scarce, and her confidence shaken by her less than warm welcome to the country, Blandine cannot find the enthusiasm to leave her damp mattress.

인도 제2의 대도시 캘커타. 식민지 시절 이후 침투되어 있는 영국 문화와 인도 고유의 전통이 부딪히고 뒤섞이는 곳. 이 도시 거리에는 젊은 남녀 유럽인 수십명이 살고 있다. 그 외국인 그룹 중 한 사람인 앨런(Allan: 휴 그랜트 분)은 어느날 그를 찾아온 라이프지 사진기자 루시앙 메츠(Lucien Metz: 존 허트 분)를 자신이 근무하는 회사 사장 센(Indira Sen: 사바나 이즈미 분) 댁으로 인도 가정을 취재하도록 안내한다. 취재 도중 그 집 딸 가야트리(Gayatri: 수프리야 파탁 분)가 뜨거운 차를 루시앙의 무릎에 엎지르자 루시앙은 가야트리를 저주의 여신 칼리의 현신이라고 생각하고 황급히 캘커타를 떠나버린다. 앨런은 정글 구경을 갔다가 풍토병에 걸려 사경을 헤매다가 겨우 낫는다. 이때 센은 앨런을 자기 집에 머물며 휴양하도록 호의를 베푼다. 이 집에서 지내는 동안 앨런은 가야트리와 사랑하는 사이가 되고, 이 사실이 가야트리의 동생과 삼촌에 의해 센에게 알려지자, 센은 그 즉시 앨런을 축출하고 다시는 자기 가족과 접촉하지 말 것을 요구한다. 쫓겨난 앨런은 다시 리폰 거리의 친구들에게 돌아온다. 곧이어 가야트리의 삼촌 코카(Khokha: 안얀 듀트 분)가 앨런을 찾아와 앨런과 가야트리의 사랑 때문에 센은 병세가 도지고 가야트리는 매을 맞아 초죽음이 되고, 언니의 수난을 목격한 동생은 자살을 기도하는 등 센 집안이 온통 파멸상태가 됐지만, 가야트리는 그런 중에도 앨런을 기다리니 만나보라고 권한다. 그러나 다시는 만나지 말라는 센의 요구 때문에 앨런은 이러지도 저러지도 못하고 슬그머니 거리에서 사라지고 만다.
