The second edition of the “Tozorous” international meeting of the youth cinema in Tozeur will take place from January 30 to February 3, 2018, with the participation of young filmmakers from France, Algeria, Morocco, Jordan, Palestine, Libya and Tunisia.
This artistic event is created thanks to the collaboration between the Horizon association for young people, culture and education and the National Center for Cinema and Image (CNCI). It will be marked by a competition of 60 hours of cinema with the participation of 27 teams of young people from participating countries.
During this demonstration, 60 short films in addition to three feature films, namely the film “Jaida” by Selma Baccar, “Weldek Rajel” (Ton son is a man) of Heifel Ben Youssef, “La Belle et la Meute” by Kaouther Ben Hania will be projected.
Under the sign “Rouhaniyatt”, the opening show will offer painting on sand, videos of film projections and musical interludes animated by musicians from the region, said the executive director of the Walid Dabouni event at the TAP agency.
In partnership with the Palestine Embassy in Tunisia, the second day will pay tribute to Palestinian cinema with the screening of two Palestinian films, in addition to a traditional Palestinian singing recital which will be given to Dar Ben Azouz in the tozeur medina.
