Visions du Réel Lebanese Doc ‘We Are Inside’ Debuts Trailer: ‘It’s About Change in My Father, in Me, in My Country’ (EXCLUSIVE)
'We Are Inside,' a co-production between Road2Films, Al Jazeera Documentary and Good Company Pictures, debuts at Visions du Réel.
The film was produced by the helmer’s regular collaborator Cynthia Choucair of Lebanon’s Road2Films, in co-production with Qatar’s Al Jazeera Documentary Channel and Denmark’s Good Company Pictures (“Photographer of War,” “Beautiful Something Left Behind”). With her cinematographer Tebbe Schöningh (whom she met at Visions du Réel in 2017), Kassem used 4:3 framing “to think of an image where the horizon is not so expanded and more vertical to suggest isolation,” and her usual self-imposed rules. Al Jazeera Documentary Channel was a decisive first partner, joined by Danish co-producer Patricia Drati of Good Company Pictures and numerous funds, including Chicken & Egg Pictures, Sundance Documentary Film Institute, IMS (International Media Support), SFFILM Flies Collective, IDFA Bertha Fund (“ I Was Inside ” won the IDFA Forum best rough cut pitch in 2020), CNC, Hammana Artist House and dok.incubator.
