Birds of Arabia, Fragments of Correspondence Trailers

Simone Weil and Antonio Atarès, an anarchist spanish peasant exiled in France, then deported to Algeria, start a correspondence. Both the past in these letters and the present of their hope in today’s images are what connect them.

Reviews
SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
