BETWEEN THE LINES (2026)
Format : documentary film, 26 minutes
Author : Coline Stagnitto Woleg
Director : Coline Stagnitto Woleg
Production : Human Tales
Tents, tarpaulins, a few belongings hastily piled up… lives hanging in the balance. In the heart of the Cambodian displaced persons camps, born of an armed conflict along the Thai-Cambodian border, the violence of displacement exists alongside spontaneous and vital bursts of human solidarity. Marin ventures into the camps. A survivor of the Khmer Rouge era, he connects the exiles of yesterday with those of today. Through him emerge human voices, too often stifled by the clamor of conflict. An immersive narrative devoid of political discourse, centered on the human experience… that explores the paradoxes of conflict: violence and solidarity, loss and legacy, waiting and momentum… and reveals what endures when everything else crumbles.

After ten years of international aid work, a nurse questions her practice: how to provide support without creating vulnerability? On the isolated island of Motalava, in northern Vanuatu, she reconnects with a community that has traditionally welcomed her, a community now facing healthcare shortages and natural disasters. Alongside George, a local activist committed to prevention and community resilience, the film explores a different approach to humanitarian aid: one rooted in local dynamics, driven by the transmission of knowledge and respect for existing balances. The Other Shore tells the story of a shift in perspective... a path where aid strengthens what already exists.

Culture & Canopy is a documentary following the journey of GuyAlegria, a travelling artistic collective working across western French Guiana.

From remote villages to cultural crossroads, it documents often discreet initiatives that create opportunities for expression, connection and transmission in everyday life. A perspective shaped along the way, seeking to understand what these spaces make possible - for those who create and sustain them, as well as for those who experience them.
