// Premiere // “It came from my body – its fatigue, its strength, its vulnerability. And from that, an intuition: that this film might revolve around the body, its limits, its spirit, and its inevitable fading.” @rolfhellat delves into his experimental documentary ‘Déjà Nu’ - a rich collaborative film created with @laetitiaky , @sylvia_dancefit , Younouss Sadio, Jean-Luc Yonhite, Alpha Oumar Diallo and Doudou Touré which brings together themes of culture, identity and bodily transience into an enthralling genre-bending audiovisual poem.
