- A family comedy about arranged marriage
- Peu lui importent les hommes et la gloire, Catherine est une athlète qui court pour son plaisir. Elle y met toute sa fougue, tout son coeur, et ne fait d'entorses à sa passion que pour Olivier, le reporter sportif avec qui elle partage sa vie. Un jour cette passion tourne à l'aveuglement lorsque "l'injustice" d'une blessure, à quelques semaines d'une importante compétition, fait accepter à Catherine ce qu'elle a toujours refusé : un médicament qui cache la douleur et lui permet de continuer à courir. Le mot "dopage" est oublié lorsque le succès arrive : Catherine est championne de France du 800 mètres. Elle file vers le Championnat d'Europe et les Jeux Olympiques. L'engrenage, Catherine ne peut l'éviter. Elle oublie les risques de sanctions et les risques physiques. Elle accepte des médicaments qui la transforment mais la déforment. Elle repousse les mises en garde d'Olivier et fonce vers sa destruction. Elle court, toujours plus vite, toujours plus fort, toujours plus loin... Mais c'est peut-être la mort qui va la rattraper...
- Our ancestors the Gauls English synopsis Be aware of the role of the mothers of immigration in the blossoming of a multiracial France is one of the main focus of the film "Our ancestors the Gauls". These anonymous heroines tell their stories and speak of their place in society, and their responsibility in the integration of their children born in France. Step by step, the film follows the developments in the artistic project which has been stimulated by the film itself : a theater performance based on reality, written from the transcripts of meetings with the mothers and their witness statements. These "Actress Mothers" emerge from the shadows to tell their interlinked experiences. Funny and lively, they speak on a theater stage, in front of their dear ones, unknown spectators, the media and the wider public, about their vision of France, their routes to emancipation and their hopes for their children. Encouraging these mothers to talk about immigration has become an artistic project in full that the film tells - from their first steps on the stage, through doubts, trails and errors, nervousness, laughs - until the magic of the premiere.
- Sofia receives an unexpected visit
- The crossed visions of illegal aliens who left everything behind in search of a better life in the West, and who now almost regret being here, and those who are ready, in Africa, to follow their example and risk their life to cross the seas. Following back and forth the immigrants from Mali and the coast of Senegal to workers' suburbs around Paris, the film shows the hidden face of these shadow workers, the neglected dimension of people so close so far, our brothers beyond borders drawn by men.
- Salim arrives in France, happy like a hummingbird at the idea of joining again with Sofia, a young French woman of Moroccan descent whom he married there according to the country tradition. But he quickly becomes disillusioned when she tells him she no longer wants to be his wife. Here in France she is free and nobody can force her. Between brothers and sisters who support Sofia, a disoriented Salim who wants to return to Morocco, and parents who would like him to build a new life in France, with or without Sofia, the situation is intractable. Marriage Blues, a bittersweet comedy, is thumbing its nose at the arranged marriage.
