The fight for Yemen

In September 2014, after 4 days of fighting, Houthi rebels took control of Sana’a, the capital of Yemen. A few days later, Safa Al Ahmad, a BBC journalist, managed to enter Yemen. She is the only journalist to have filmed for a western television station, a considerable feat in a country cut off from the world for several months. The film is an outstanding document, the result of a highly risky journey which begins in Saada, the province of the Houthis in the north of the country. It was from here that the Houthis began their conquest of Yemen, a country divided into tribal zones, some of which are loyal to the arch-enemies of the Houthis – Al Qaeda.

Directed by Safa Al Ahmad

Durection: 45 minutes

In the Name of the Temple

During the 6-Day War of June 1967, Israeli soldiers occupied the Temple Mount. This was the site of the Temple, the most holy place in Judaism, which had been destroyed by the Romans 2,000 years earlier. For nationalist rabbis, capture of the Mount confirmed their vision: Zionism is the herald of redemption. ‘In the Name of the Temple’ is the first documentary, drawing on exclusive interviews, to examine the emergence of messianic religious Zionism.

In order to seize possession of what they consider to be the Land of Israel, the Zionists sent their followers to colonise the Left Bank and Gaza. After spurning every single peace initiative, they are now preparing to build a new Jewish Temple on the site of the Al Aqsa holy mosques, the third most holy site of Islam.

Duration: 65 minutes

Directed by Charles Enderlin

Zadig Productions, produced by Paul Rozenberg and Céline Nusse.

Amnesty International Round Table: civilians under a reign of terror

2015 has been a particularly terrible year for people who live in zones of conflict. Under international law, civilians are supposed to be protected from the ravages of war, but more than ever, this protection is cruelly lacking.

This meeting will draw up an overview of the situation based on insights and alternative practices. Round table led by Claude Guibal and including Donatella Rovera (Amnesty researcher), Ayman Oghanna (photojournalist), and Aymeric Elluin (Amnesty).

Can the jihadist Daesh organisation become a true state?

In 2015 not a week has gone by without the words “Daesh”, “Jihad”, “Islamic State” or “Terrorism” dominating the headlines. These words, which in themselves represent the world of a single network, are now applied well beyond the borders of Syria and Iraq.
Today we are confronting attacks in Tunisia, Kuwait, Egyptian Sinai; splinter groups in Afghanistan and Libya; logistics bases in tourist idylls such as the Maldives; and fighters joining from around the world, including the West. A war of religion and territory? The establishment of terror? A war of communication? Control of energy resources? A geopolitical show of strength? This evening goes beyond the propaganda and the ready-made myths reflected by the media to try to gain a better grasp of Daesh, its origins and its development.

Does the organisation have the means necessary to achieve its ambitions, and could it really become an Islamic State? What would be the effects on the local populations?

What local branches and offshoots does Daesh have around the world?

Barack Obama has declared a war aiming to destroy the jihadist organisation, but does the international community have the means to destroy Daesh without sparking off other terrorist groups?

Prepared and presented by Eric Valmir (France Inter). Participants will include Patrick Cockburn, Pierre-Jean Luizard, Jean-Pierre Perrin (Libération) and Héléne Sallon (Le Monde).

“Disparus” (“The Disappeared”)

A film by Sophie Nivelle-Cardinale and Etienne Huver

Preview screening
“Disparus” (“The Disappeared”) is an investigation into the hidden side of a war still going on. Far from the bombs and the devastated cities, the film documents a phenomenon which has been wreaking havoc among the Syrian population since 2011. More than a hundred thousand people have disappeared, possibly even more - as many as those who have died in the armed conflict, according to some witnesses. These disappearances show that the Syrian regime has set up a ruthless killing machine whose inner workings are torture, arbitrariness and cruelty. For the first time, families of those who have disappeared, survivors, and also torturers and executioners speak out about this journey into hell. Through different protagonists, political leaders, religious figures and scenes filmed on the ground, this documentary throws light on the challenges and upheavals taking place in a country which seems condemned to perpetual instability.

A debate will follow the documentary, it will be animated by Michel BEURET, with Garance Le Caisne and the film makers, Sophie Nivelle-Cardinale et Etienne Huver.

The screening will be followed by a round-table discussion including Sophie Nivelle-Cardinale and Étienne Huver.

Reporters Memorial

Unveiling of the Stele for 2014 and the beginning of 2015

The stele at the Memorial to Reporters for 2014 and the beginning of 2015 will be officially unveiled in the presence of Christophe Deloire, General Secretary of Reporters Without Borders, and family members and friends of journalists killed in the course of the last year.

Although the number of journalists killed in the course of their work – 71 journalists and 20 netizens – fell slightly, the year 2014 saw the development of a different form of violence, involving ever greater exploitation of atrocities committed against journalists A journalist is no longer a collateral victim or an awkward witness: s/he has become an incarnation of freedom who must be eliminated, a challenge in a battle of ideologies. The killings have thus become more and more barbaric, gruesomely staged in order to gain attention and create sinister propaganda.

The ceremony this year will pay a special tribute to the 12 victims of the attack against the editorial team of Charlie Hebdo. This black day in the history of the world’s press demonstrates the extreme violence which can be meted out to those who dare to criticise - or even simply question - religion. Among the victims were five cartoonists and illustrators who were extremely popular in France, including Cabu, Wolinski and Charb.

The stele will also pay tribute to fifteen Syrian journalists, victims of the civil war which has now been raging for four years. Syria today is the most dangerous country in the world for journalists. They are systematically targeted by Bashar al-Assad’s security forces, by pro-government militias and by jihadist groups including Islamic State. Since March 2011 40 journalists have been killed while carrying out their work in Syria, 13 of them foreigners.

“We continue to mobilise every single day, in the face of murders, kidnappings, imprisonment and censorship, to help both journalists and citizens to achieve their mission of conveying the truth” says Christophe Deloire. “Resolution 2222, supported by Reporters Without Borders and adopted by the United Nations Security Council last May, demonstrates the determination of the international community to secure better protection for journalists in conflict zones. Fighting against impunity, which is too often the case when journalists are assassinated, has to be our top priority”, continued the General Secretary of the organisation.

Photographers in words

The Changing Images of War

Times change and the nature of war too.
Between the Vietnam war, covered by photographers who were incorporated into the American army with officer status, and the war in Syria, where photographers are considered to be prime targets, the status of war photographers has diminished dramatically. In the wake of the collapse of the print market, newspapers and magazines no longer commission photo reports from conflict zones, and we have to rely on the faith and audacity of a very small number of war photographers to provide us with precious accounts of events which have become almost invisible.
To better understand these changes in the profession and the nature of war photography, you are invited to meet three photographers from different generations in a debate organised by Alain Frilet of the Paroles de Photographes (Photographers in Words) organisation. We are delighted to welcome Patrick Chauvel, who has been covering international affairs for more than 40 years and whose reputation and talent shine out in every one of his stories; Alvaro Canovas, a photographer for Paris Match who has been covering international conflicts for more than 25 years, and Laurence Geai, a young photographer who has decided to pick up the baton from the older generation and has just spent several weeks in the occupied
