Zero Fucks Given (Originaltitle: Rien à foutre)
At 26, Cassandre criss-crosses the skies as a flight attendant for a low-cost airline. She lives in the moment, carried along by the frenetic pace of flights and one-night stands, true to her Tinder alias: “Carpe Diem”. Her life seems light, free, almost elusive — a beautiful escape without roots, where each stopover is a promise of oblivion.

But one day, an incident cracks this suspended bubble. Reality catches up with her, forcing her to put her feet on the ground and face what she has been running away from. So Cassandre must choose: continue to run away from everything, or dive into the depths of her buried pain to find those she left behind.

Dahomey
The documentary film ‘Dahomey’ by Senegalese director Mati Diop is a powerful work that deals with the restitution of looted cultural property from colonial contexts. It focuses on the return of 26 royal artefacts from the Musée du Quai Branly in Paris to the Republic of Benin – once part of the Kingdom of Dahomey.

The film accompanies this historic moment not only as a political event, but also as a cultural and emotional return. It shows how young people in Benin deal with their colonial heritage, what questions they ask and what visions they develop for the future. The result is a multi-voiced portrait of a generation grappling with history, identity and justice.

He paints her portrait again and again, eventually creating over 140 paintings and 700 drawings of Marthe. But Marthe is not content with the role of muse. She aspires to be an artist herself. Pierre finds this difficult to accept and is increasingly confronted with the question of who actually plays which role in their relationship…
