A Letter to Mohamed

Lettre à Mohamed is a cinematic letter to a friend in Belgium, to Mohamed, who left Tunisia. “Fleeing” and “self-immolation” have the same word root in Arabic - fire. Christine Moderbacher thus connects her letter to Mohamed with the name with which the Tunisian revolution began: with Mohamed Bouazizi, who set himself on fire. This film takes place against the backdrop of disillusionment, yet in the images there is the trace of fire that can be sparked at any time.
