Light in April
2005, French. Directed by Justine Malle.
"Light in April" describes the mixed emotions one can't help but feel when spending some time in New Orleans: a constant exhilaration in the face of the extraordinary vitality emanating from this city, and simultaneously, a sense of sadness and resignation in the face of the heart-wrenching misfortunes. The film pays tribute to the dignity, humor, intelligence, and human richness of these people who are confronted day after day with violence, racism, and corruption.
