"Les Recommencements"

Cinéma Galeries - Galerie de la Reine 28, 1000 Bruxelles

— 20:30

Based on the life story of Al Moon, a member of the Yurok tribe and Vietnam War veteran, Les recommencements explores how environmental damage, historical violence and transformations in living organisms affect subjectivities, ways of inhabiting the world and possibilities for reconstruction.

The film does not treat the environmental issue as a separate field, but as a subject caught up in a dense network of relationships—historical, social, political, and sensory—in which humans, territories, and forms of life are closely intertwined. This approach echoes your resolutely interdisciplinary approach, attentive to the co-transformations between societies and environments.

Synopsis:

Al fights against the ecological threat to his Yurok territory in California. A Vietnam veteran, he also struggles with his own demons. In ongoing dialogue with the directors, he sets out on a journey to meet the men from his former battalion and confront his past.
