L’oiseau Bennu de la mythologie \u00e9gyptienne, qui ressemble \u00e0 un h\u00e9ron, volait sur la terre avant que le temps n’existe. Son cri a bris\u00e9 le silence primitif, cr\u00e9ant de la lumi\u00e8re \u00e0 partir d’une obscurit\u00e9 infinie. Ici, son cri rauque se lamente sur la trag\u00e9die de longue date de la r\u00e9gion de la M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e orientale. Le film est une r\u00e9flexion sur la fronti\u00e8re sud du Liban, une ligne trac\u00e9e pour la premi\u00e8re fois par les puissances occidentales pendant la Premi\u00e8re Guerre mondiale, et int\u00e8gre des images a\u00e9riennes de la Palestine prises par les Britanniques au d\u00e9but du XXe si\u00e8cle, alors que le destin de la r\u00e9gion aurait pu prendre une direction tr\u00e8s diff\u00e9rente.\u00a0La perspective a\u00e9rienne fait \u00e9galement r\u00e9f\u00e9rence aux voyages de millions d’oiseaux migrateurs dont les parcours anciens et cycliques s’opposent aux divisions humaines sur le terrain, reliant le peuple palestinien en exil dans un camp de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s au Liban \u00e0 la patrie historique \u00e0 laquelle il s’identifie. Soixante-seize ans apr\u00e8s que leurs familles ont \u00e9t\u00e9 forc\u00e9es de fuir vers le nord en traversant cette fronti\u00e8re, eux et leurs descendants attendent toujours de revenir.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The heron-like Bennu bird of Egyptian mythology flew across the earth before time existed. Its cry broke through the primeval silence, creating light from infinite darkness. Here, its hoarse cry is lamenting the longstanding tragedy of the Eastern Mediterranean region.\u00a0The film is a reflection on the southern Lebanese border, a line first drawn by the western powers during World War I, and incorporates aerial images of Palestine taken by the British in the early 20th century, when the fate of the area could have taken a very different direction.\u00a0The aerial perspective also refers to the journeys of millions of migratory birds whose ancient, cyclical journeys counter the human divisions on the ground, connecting the Palestinian people in exile in a refugee camp in Lebanon to the historic homeland with which they identify. Seventy six years after their families were forced to flee north across this border, they and their descendants are still waiting to return.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14059,"menu_order":0,"template":"","portfolio-category":[497],"portfolio-tag":[],"class_list":["post-14058","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-category-friche-sin-20-oct-2024-prog2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/14058","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14059"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14058"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio-category?post=14058"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.instantsvideo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio-tag?post=14058"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
