What does it mean to be a ‘European’ in the present period of crisis : A Russian Perspective

What does it mean to be a ‘European’ in the present period of crisis : A Russian Perspective

Written By : Ksenia Antropova Export Development Advisor, Saint Etienne Photo Credit: shutterstock.com I’m deeply and strongly convinced about the important role that the European Union plays in our daily intellectual life. I come from Russia, the country having the largest territorial presence in our planet, where I’d grown up under an atmosphere of Nationalism with overpowering desire of domination on the rest of the world and a blatant hostility toward the European Union. Now, after living in France and being a part of a bigger geographical community, I can myself see that my attitude has changed a lot and…

L'autorité chinoise, plutôt discrète au début, a officiellement reconnu la propagation de l'épidémie en janvier 2020, et l'OMS l'a confirmée. La…

Le sort des agriculteurs palestiniens : contexte d’un reportage

Ecrit par : Joy Banerjee Cinéaste documentariste et ancien journaliste reporter d'images, France Télévisions Photos : auteur READ IN ENGLISH Le checkpoint de Kalandya A quelques kilomètres de Jérusalem, après avoir dépassé une zone industrielle où il n'y a pas âme qui vive, on aperçoit de loin les tourelles militaires qui surplombent le checkpoint de Kalandya. En se rapprochant des casemates, la voiture doit slalomer entre les blocs de béton, les déchets en tous genres qui s'accumulent sur la route. Quelques militaires israéliens, le fusil d’assaut en bandoulière, regardent vaguement les voitures circuler. Ce jour-là, la situation est calme, et…

Plight of Palestinian Farmers : Background of a Reportage

Written by : Joy Banerjee Independent Filmmaker and ex video journalist, France Television Photos : Author READ IN FRENCH Kalandya checkpoint A few kilometres from Jerusalem, after crossing an industrial area where there is no living soul, one can see from afar the military turrets overlooking the Kalandya checkpoint. As the car gets closer to the casemates, it has to shuffle between the concrete blocks and all kinds of rubbish dumped on the road. A few Israeli soldiers, with assault rifles, slung over their shoulders, vaguely watch the cars go by. That day, the situation is calm, and the soldiers,…

Kaamyaab (Round Figure): The Success-dream of Every Commoner

Written By : Simran Saini New Delhi, India Photo: Official Facebook Page Film Review: Kaamyaab (Round Figure) Country: India Director: Hardik Mehta Cast: Sanjay Mishra, Deepak Dobriyal.

Delhi Assembly Elections 2020 : Win of Collective Conscience over Religious Jingoism

From director’s desk Written by : Jayanta Chakrabarty Illustration by : Suman Choudhury In the beginning of January 2014, I was in Delhi. Dhoom 3 was released in theatres a few days back and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had formed a minority government in a hung assembly with outside support of 8 legislative members of Indian National Congress, with Arvind Kejriwal as the Chief Minister. The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) was biting the dust instead of being the signal largest party with 31 elected members in an Assembly of 70 seats. It was a tumultuous political situation; it was…
