Je parle toutes les langues, mais en arabe

52'28, 2018-2021.
From the peaks of the High Atlas to the cavity of a mouth, the creative documentary Je parle toutes les langues, mais en arabe travels along a vocal groove that leads from song to tongue. In the reliefs of this groove are hollowed out the memory of words, traces of colonial violence, a song of remedy, the history of letters and of the cosmos. The interviews conducted with "practitioners" of speech are answered by soundscapes and music.
