La voix postcoloniale de Med Hondo
June 16th - 27th, 2023
If Med Hondo's voice as an actor is familiar to some moviegoers because of his prolific activity in dubbing American films, it is his political voice as an independent filmmaker that this cycle highlights. A Mauritanian immigrant to France, Hondo took up the camera to shout out his indignation at the injustices that his films witness and speak for: The situation of immigrants, the aftermath of colonialism, the economic stakes of post-colonialism, the sovereignty of peoples... From self-taught essays to historical frescoes, Hondo has tried his hand at different genres over the years, without ever losing his formal freedom, his biting humor, his sharp sense of analysis or his strong convictions.
