Little by little, she befriends a group of four Guatemalans assigned to the most physically demanding unit of the entire factory. Shoveling shredded corn in the harsh sun all day long, Manuel, Alfonso, Guillermo, and Juan have no one else but her to voice their concerns. Realizing the extent of her new friends' vulnerability, Ariane begins to take a stand against Stephane. Tension slowly builds up between the two as Ariane defies his decision to fire workers or to illegally install surveillance cameras in the dormitories. When Manuel slowly falls ill to a mysterious condition, the stakes quickly develop into a crisis situation.

Despite the high volume of its beloved and beautiful drone metal, Earth has rarely had much to say for itself. For the first time, Clyde Petersen gets to the core of the could-have-been-tragic triumph of Earth, the slow band that changed everything it touched.

	Typhoon Club Sunday October 1, 2023 at 21:00 Cinéma Moderne - Regular programming Cinema • Fiction Original Japanese version, English Subtitles New 4K Restoration Winner of the Grand Prix at the first Tokyo International Film Festival in 1985, Typhoon Club is widely regarded as the seminal film of director Shinji Somai's career.

When day breaks and the rains let up, the youngsters open their eyes to a world in ruins—or a world renewed. The 10th best Japanese film of all time, according to Japan's Kinema Junpo poll.

	Mami Wata Sunday October 8, 2023 at 17:15 Cinéma Moderne - Regular programming Cinema • Fiction Original English and Fon version, English subtitles In the oceanside village of Iyi, the revered Mama Efe (Rita Edochie) acts as an intermediary between the people and the all-powerful water deity Mami Wata. But when a young boy is lost to a virus, Efe's devoted daughter Zinwe (Uzoamaka Aniunoh) and skeptical protégé Prisca (Evelyne Ily Juhen) warn Efe about unrest among the villagers. With the sudden arrival of a mysterious rebel deserter named Jasper (Emeka Amakeze), a conflict erupts, leading to a violent clash of ideologies and a crisis of faith for the people of Iyi. C.J. “Fiery” Obasi's potent modern fable deploys vivid monochromatic black-and-white cinematography, rich sound design, and a hypnotic score in a folk-futurist style both earthy and otherworldly. Obasi depicts a pitched battle between opportunistic militants promising technological progress and a matriarchal spiritual order living in fragile harmony with the ocean. Mami Wata transports us to a place that seems both suspended in time and perhaps running out of time, as the threats of modern life wash up on its shores.
