Sara Sadik: Ils finiront dans des ravins (They will end up in ravines) / Le nez de ma mère (My Mother’s Nose)

8 June 2023

Free

Co-commissioned with the Lyon Biennale, this filmic installation by Sara Sadik uses video games, science fiction, everyday life and French rap music to write coming-of-age stories.

Accompanying it is a continuously-running programme of French-language cinema titled Le nez de ma mère (My Mother’s Nose), which highlights the artistic context of Sadik’s work, the constellation of peers and ideas from which it emerged, and their shared political context. The films presented in the programme explore personal experiences of shame, family histories, and quests for love and security; each work demonstrates the capacity of artists to imagine, tell stories, build communities and write new narratives.
