Les Baies d'Alger 2006

Directed by Hassen Ferhani

A panoramic shot over the terraces of Algiers. The camera zooms in and out, seeming to unexpectedly capture the private daily conversations of the inhabitants of Algiers. With this short essay, the filmmaker wants to show "Algerian society’s openness to the world and to modern ways, as well as its contradictions with regard to traditions.”
