L’ Arc-en-ciel éclaté

Belkacem Hadjadj
1998 Belgium; Algeria 52 minutes Arabic

In the tortured village of The Triangle of Death, children orphaned by one of the massacres are learning to deal with their fears and look at the future in a positive light. In a plastic arts workshop, they are collectively working on a mural under the eye of the painter, Djamal Merbah. Little by little, through the images and colour, not only are they managing to express their pain and expectations, but also, with the help of psychologist Latefa Belarouci, they are beginning to find words that bring relief.
