Alexandra Hernandez, l'archipel et l'océan(2023)
"My music derives from the elements of the archipelago."
Alexandra Hernandez is a child of the sea. She sings about Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, a small archipelago off the coast of Newfoundland, a French enclave on the American continent. The sea, the wind and the fog ooze through her lyrics, which sing of love in an omnipresent natural setting. She takes us back to the places that populated her childhood imagination, to a small archipelago where everyone knows everyone else, and where the unknown resonates in the wind that beats down on the islands.

Vous serez parés pour le vent(fr)
In Saint Pierre et Miquelon, a tiny French archipelago in the North Atlantic, a group of teenagers have just graduated from high school. Urged to continue their studies, it's time to leave for mainland France and Canada. Manon, Evie, Enguerrand and their friends are about to spend their last summer on the islands together. In the turmoil that precedes this leap into the void, these budding adults, like previous generations, are confronted with this particular moment in their lives. They'll have to leave. But they are islanders, and this departure has the air of exile, of uprooting with no certainty of return. As they leave adolescence, they will be uprooted from their land, crossing a border that is both symbolic and physical. The idea is that something happens here that is more observable than elsewhere, something that concentrates and accelerates the transformations of the teenagers' personalities.

Jalanan(en)
Jalanan is the captivating story of Boni, Ho and Titi - three gifted, charismatic bus musicians in Jakarta - and through them a mostly unknown story of contemporary Indonesia. Jalanan intimately portrays the young musicians' quirky sub-culture while also painting an alarming portrait of Indonesia's frenzied capital city that is raw, humorous and brutally honest. Jalanan accompanies the three characters as they perform songs of social angst, get caught in political unrest, face family crises and get locked up by police. It follows them to their distant home villages in Java and traces their elusive, heartfelt quest for identity and love in an adopted city rapidly being overrun by the effects of globalization. A powerful soundtrack of the musicians' original compositions drives the film.
