March 18, 2008 - UPDATE - New action on the Super Console Wars Front! New trailer coming soon followed by a slew of episodes!!!! I'm usually not one to post a trailer to something, but this is taking a while, so I thought I'd give you a taste of things to come. Just so you know, I'm not advocating one console over another. Rather this is more about game characters versus the hardware. Also the upload is the higher quality audio version, so it may take a little time to download.
Stretching along the River Seine, Evry Ville Nouvelle is one of those utopian towns created by town-planners and architects, where habitat, work and leisure are mixed together so as to promote social contact and community life. However, recession soon puts a term to ambitions. Certain districts turn into ghettos, catchment areas for a poor and marginalised population with little hope of finding a job or fitting into society. The film explores life in the Pyramides district, following the 402 bus route through the town and other "difficult" districts. Buses passing through their territory are one of the teenagers' favourite targets. Given the rise of sometimes violent fighting, the local public transport service (the TICE) has organised a prevention network involving the district's inhabitants. For these mediators, dialogue and prevention are the only arms possible when dealing with youngsters who feel that they live "in the outer zone"
Ibéa Atondi uses the story of a return to his home country, Congo-Brazzaville, to adopt an unusual viewpoint on the wars of contemporary Africa. Fascinated by the bloodthirsty madness of Mignon, a Cobra fighter destroyed by alcohol and drugs, the female narrator attempts to grasp the mechanisms that drove him and his companions to abandon all human dignity. No images of violence are used to evoke the horrors of war; this is done through use of metaphor to underpin the statements of victims and executioners.
The film opens with a striking image: seven children in rags, aged 7 to 19, crawl out from under a Brazzaville market stall where they have spent the night. Moussa Touré picks up with them there and then continues to film as they go about their business in the city, looking for food and odd jobs. Taking advantage of his closeness to the children, the filmmaker sets out to take each back to his family. But the road back is beset with difficulties that exemplify the state of Congolese society.

Ablution observes dissociation. It is divided into three vignettes, each with its own distinct structure. As a whole, the Ablution, or the cleansing, is a look into the magical, if not somewhat uncertain, places that each of us pass through at select times in our lives.
