Steven Spielberg - USA – 1993 – fiction – black&white – 197’ - OV – STT FR / NL
Steven Spielberg tackles the Shoah in the story of the German industrialist who saved the life of hundreds of Jews by employing them in his factory. Liam Neeson is a towering Schindler, while Ralph Fiennes plays the frenzied head of the concentration camp. Despite its sentimental ending, the movie’s power and brutality is enhanced by its black and white photography.

Jawad Rhalib - B – 2008 – Documentaire – color – 71’ – OV – STT FR
First-rate Belgian documentary about Essaouria in Morocco, selected for competition at the prestigious Amsterdam Festival. Formerly known as Mogador, this small coastal town was the world’s first sardine port. But fierce competition from Asia and Europe and a questionable handling of resources have led the local fishermen to have to make do with incomes of less than two euros a day. Jacad Rhalib’s powerful film is an uncompromising look at a harsh reality.
