Sons of the Wind
1981. Algeria. Directed by Brahim Tsak. Four almost wordless segments, poetic yet unsentimental, focus on people living in the countryside on the edge of society. Children playing, sudden bursts of wildness, grown-up faces lit by warming fires in winter—landscapes and the people they shape and (barely) sustain. 71 min.
In the Film exhibition Mapping Subjectivity: Experimentation in Arab Cinema from the 1960s to Now, Part I
