39° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL
HADJITHOMAS/JOREIGE

AIDA SAUVE MOI

AIDA SAVE ME
by Joana Hadjithomas, Khalil Joreige
Country: Lebanon
Year: 2021
Duration: 60'


In April 2006, during the Beirut premiere of the feature film A Perfect Day, an extraordinary incident, "unbelievable but true," was to disrupt the film release and resonate strangely vis-a-vis the work of Hadjithomas and Joreige. A series of disappearances followed. This performance measures the distance between recognition and representation of oneself, and recounts this adventure whereby fiction has, all of a sudden, taken the appearance of a document.
