Durant l'été 2003, un groupe de bergers à la tête d'un troupeau de moutons traverse les montagnes du Montana, à l'extrême Nord-Ouest des Etats-Unis. Sur 300 km de vallées verdoyantes et de plaines enneigées à perte de vue, les bergers acheminent tant bien que mal les centaines de moutons. Mais en cette paisible contrée rodent loups et ours.

There are five cameras — each with its own story. When his fourth son, Gibreel, is born in 2005, self-taught cameraman Emad Burnat, a Palestinian villager, gets his first camera. At the same time in his village of Bil’in, the Israelis begin bulldozing village olive groves to build a barrier to separate Bil'in from the Jewish Settlement Modi'in Illit. The barrier's route cuts off 60% of Bil'in farmland and the villagers resist this seizure of more of their land by the settlers.

Directed by Werner Herzog
Genres Documentary
Themes Films about television, Documentary films about business, Documentary films about the film industry, Documentaire sur une personnalité
Actors Werner Herzog, Klaus Kinski, Eva Mattes, Isabelle Adjani, Claudia Cardinale, Mick Jagger

The film opens with shots of Klaus Kinski performing – after his own interpretation – the role of Jesus. Kinski harangues the audience for not paying attention to him, curses wildly, has the microphone taken away from him, and, screaming, steals it back. Kinski left one of his Jesus tours to star in Herzog's film, Aguirre, the Wrath of God (1972). This was the first of five films that the two would make together, the others being Nosferatu the Vampyre (1978); Woyzeck (1978); Fitzcarraldo (1982); and Cobra Verde (1987).

Themes Documentary films about business

The film focuses on the coffee growers of the Oromia Region of southern and western Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee. It follows Tadesse Meskela, the General Manager of the Oromia Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union, as he visits coffee-growing regions in Sidamo and Oromia (including the Kilenso Mokonisa Cooperative in the Bule Hora woreda in the Borena Zone of the Oromia Region), as well as a coffee processing center, a coffee auction house, and his union's headquarters in Addis Ababa. He also travels to England and the United States in an effort to promote Ethiopian coffee by eliminating the numerous middlemen. There is also a scene where coffee farmers pray to God for a higher price, which was filmed at the Negele Gorbitu Cooperative, located near Irgachefe in the Abaya woreda of the Borena Zone. The Ethiopian coffee farmers speak about their lives, with one explaining that he is cutting down his coffee plants and planting khat (a plant containing cathinone, an amphetamine-like stimulant) instead, due to the low price he is getting for coffee because of the explosion in the number of coffee farmers across the globe, and the comparatively higher price he can get for khat.

En découvrant le film The Notorious Bettie Page, produit par la chaîne HBO en 2006, la principale intéressée avait réagi sans équivoque : "Mensonges ! Mensonges !" Dans une longue interview enregistrée peu avant sa mort, celle qui est entrée dans l'inconscient collectif comme la pin-up par excellence a livré sa version des faits au réalisateur Mark Mori. D'une voix rocailleuse, Bettie Page raconte sa propre histoire et lève le voile sur des zones souvent masquées par des images qui ont fait fantasmer tant d'hommes et de femmes depuis les années 1950 : son enfance maltraitée, une éclipse qui dura quarante ans, sa maladie mentale. À travers des témoignages et des archives inédites, ce documentaire fait revivre un corps et un visage déclinés à l'infini sous nos yeux, ainsi que Bettie le souhaitait : "Je voudrais que les gens se souviennent de moi comme j'étais sur les photos.
