Inspired by the life of North African poet Fatima Elayoubi, who immigrated to France knowing very little French and slowly taught herself the language. Fatima is a brilliant and moving tale about what it means to be an immigrant today. Fatima (Soria Zeroual) lives with her two teenage daughters in Lyon, and works cleaning jobs to pay their way through school. She is a woman pressured by her children and her neighbours to assimilate into a culture of which she is wary. A complex and uplifting film. This screening is the last in the current season. Screenings will resume after the summer.
