Chantier A 2013 (8)

This is the travel of Karim who was not gone back home for 10 years. A come-back that looks like a one-way ticket. Algeria. Before he forgets, find again the reasons why he left one day, the big exodus, the burning home. But the words have been sucked up in an uncertain time, in a movement that allows to be anchored. Some where.

The Language of Fire 2024

Between the Calais Jungle, where Tarek Sami spent many months filming; Algeria, which he left at the age of 20; and South Africa, where his brother has now settled, the filmmaker captures faces and stories by the fireside, staving off the fatality of the world’s polarity and reclaiming history. With this graceful film, he delivers a poetic ode to the damned of the earth striving to live their lives.
