Encounters | Diaspora: La Gale (Karine Guignard), Lebanon and Palestine – Music and film – shining a new light on tragedies and current events
Free entrance
Moderator: Arnaud Robert, Swiss journalist, director and writer
Language: French with simultaneous translation into German
Since 2012, the Diaspora section has sought to answer the question of what films actors and filmmakers watch to feel closer to their roots. In many instances, they choose life-affirming films that they used to watch with their family. Proust's madeleine, if you will. For Karine Guignard, an actress and rising Swiss hip hop star who performs under her stage name La Gale, Lebanese and Palestinian films, like her music, serve a completely different purpose. Could that purpose be leveraging the power of art to transform the world?
