Le Bled (Buildings in a Field)

One of Cohen’s many collaborations with Luc Santé, Le Bled is a film about Tangier, Morocco and a gargantuan construction project stretching across the horizon in all directions. (11 minutes, 2009, Super 8)

Opus Luminis et Hominis  (Works of Light and Man)

A portrait of Pamplona, this is a set of observations of place, people, and local customs. Named as a counterpoint to Opus Dei (lit. Work of God) who have a large presence in the town. (14 minutes, 2010, 16mm)

Amber City

A portrait of an unnamed city in Italy. Sidestepping the tourist attractions that make the city famous, the film/video posits an almost imaginary place that draws closer to the reality of its inhabitants. (48 minutes, 1999, 16mm)

This programme is showing as per of an IFI & JDIFF collaboration: Jem Cohen Retrospective (February 23rd & 24th)
