Prix Schoendoerffer<\/strong> for best documentary<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On May 27, 1995, Serbian forces disguised as UN peacekeepers took French soldiers hostage on the Vrbanja Bridge at the gates of Sarajevo. If the bridge fell, the Serbs could capture the Bosnian capital, which had been under siege for more than three years. Despite the UN mandate prohibiting them from using force, the French peacekeepers decided to retake the bridge. Thirty years later, they look back on an act of defiance and daring that marked a turning point in the Bosnian War.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Unable to make his film, a director reimagines its scenes elsewhere, with a different actor. As they search for themselves, filmmaking becomes an act of love and intimate, poetic resistance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

AFTER THE SEA, CHARLEVILLE-M\u00c9ZI\u00c8RES<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A documentary film by \u00c9lodie Sylvain \u2013 Saule Productions \u2013 France 3 Grand-Est \u2013 with support from the CNC, the Grand Est region, and Pictanovo \u2013 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fod\u00e9, Djibala, Mohsen, and their friends arrived in Charleville-M\u00e9zi\u00e8res as minors. After the Sea<\/em> reveals their life stories, shaped as much by exile as by the solidarity shown by those fighting alongside them to help them integrate. Some have seen their lives turned upside down by the Order to Leave French Territory (OQTF); others have been granted refugee status or French citizenship. This documentary gives them a voice and demonstrates, through their successes and hopes, the possibility of living together in harmony.<\/p>\n<\/div>
