A event held at Watershed on Saturday 29th March. The event starts at 14:00.
Dis-moi is an intimate documentary portrait of three elderly spirited Jewish women who survived the Holocaust.
They invite director Chantal Akerman into their Paris apartments, feed and regale her with stories about exile and deportation alongside those about love and acts of kindness, while also chiding, ‘Eat or else I won’t tell you the rest’.
Meanwhile, Akerman’s own mother can be heard on voiceover discussing her grandmother, who she lived with after she returned from Auschwitz, where her parents died.
Presented in partnership with Bristol Experimental and Expanded Film (BEEF).
This screening will be followed by a discussion of Akerman's work with co-founder of A Nos Amours collective Adam Roberts and academic Maria Walsh, hosted by Vicky Smith and Louisa Fairclough of Bristol Experimental and Expanded Film.
