The navigation is stormy on the mossy surfaces of colorful lichens lining ancient temples and forgotten monuments: it is a romantic ballad with the archaeological origins of this terrestrial world, drawing on the resources of fossilized memory, printed by subtle stigmata recounting the lost environment, its aquatic fauna and flora, the time when the oceans covered this part of the world .....

A gentle and confused home movie in search of a lost space - my grandmother's garden, where I spent my childhood. There is nothing to testify to that place and my time there. There are memories pollinated by the pollen of garden poppies the warmth of my hands, toiling in the sunshine and the stories of adults about the big world. Summer, reveries, childhood, prejudices, the realities of the noughties, a small town - shimmering images that can never manifest, but endlessly manifest themselves. The intimate experience is torn by externalised reality: the formerly Latin poppy becomes a threat to gardeners and gardeners, bugs represent terror and flowers represent death..

En juillet 2002, le dessinateur Daniel Maja se rend en Palestine à la demande du Consulat à Jérusalem et du ministère palestinien de la Culture, pour relancer un projet d’écoles de dessin à Ramallah et à Gaza. Le cinéaste Dominique Dubosc l’accompagne. Le film qui en résulte est la mémoire de ce voyage, ou plutôt, un voyage dans la mémoire des deux voyageurs. Au-delà des péripéties de la "mission Maja", vite oubliée, ce que la mémoire retient ou ramène à la surface est une vision (de plus) de l’intolérable, et en même temps, "le lien subtil, impossible à rompre" qui relie malgré tout l’homme et le monde..
From time immemorial to the age of space colonization, there is one legend that has stayed unchanged in every history book—the tale of the immortal bird Phoenix. A being whose blood is said to grant eternal life or wisdom, the radiant figure ensures the continuation of sentient life in the universe as it oversees human civilizations and their development. Yet, mankind remains a slave to its habits; from happiness and sorrow, to wrath and love, a myriad of emotions continue to play an integral part of human life. Simultaneously, time and time again, certain beliefs and agendas persist over the centuries to disturb the fragile equilibrium of the world's preordained nature and principles. It appears that fate and its dynamic variables can manifest itself in many ways—and oftentimes exhibits a bizarre sense of humor....
