"From Generation To Generation" looks at the interaction and relationships between generations. For some multigenerational families/households, there is a huge disconnect; for others, it's shared trauma and unlearned lessons.
This short block of films is available for streaming to all audiences across the globe between August 12-21, 2022.
Farida is back in her father’s native Algeria for the first me since she was a child. She discovers her grandmother’s house in the middle of the countryside. When the night comes, her sleep is disturbed by an intruder, a strange creature which has been haunting the family for many years.
About the Filmmaker
Naël started shooting his first amateur films with a small camera at only eight years old. During his teen years he participates in a dozen short films with friends, either as an editor, a writer, or a director. In 2017, he is awarded the "Moteur!" award at the Cannes Film Festival for a very-short film about his Algerian grandfather. His self-produced short film "Éclat" receives the Best Script Award at the Court Métrange Film Festival 2018. The foreign land (La terre étrangère) is his first produced short film.
