at 6 pm at the Grovillage BRACEJADA | MONTSEGUR FIRST ZAD OF HISTORY ?By Florant MERCADIER
Little is known, that the Occitan Cathars have served as a test case for the Inquisition, the trescòl being in Ariège in March 1244 in Montsegur, from the site of all the ghosts, from the Nazis to the Raelians, passing through the treasure hunters or peasants alluded to. With his sometimes charming humor, Florant dismantles mystical clichés and historical shortcuts. What if, after all, Montsegur was the first ZAD?
at 7.30 pm at the Ostal d’Occitania POLISHING OF THE SIE EXPOSURE,
Followed, at 8.30 by the screening of episodes of INVISIBLE COUNTRY Duration : 1h15 Invisible Country is a video podcast in Catalan, which offers a country without borders or land rights either and even less blood rights: Occitania. For the episodes, Zep and Farri take us from Italian Piedmont to the mountains of Auvergne, from Biarn to Dalfinat through Aran. The opportunity for Catalans to discover their not so distant Occitan cousins … But also to prove if necessary that the Pyrenees are not a border, if not a human and cultural lever, did not suit some identitarians “maufatans” IN THE PRESENCE OF ZEP ARMENTANO AND FERRIOL MACIP I BONET
Gromanche September 21
to 11 a.m. at the American Cosmograph ALIANÇAS TERRÈTRAS by Isabelle HAELVOËT (France, 2024, 1h29, documentary)
Isabelle Haelvoët tells us the story of the rise in power of the resistance movement to the A69 project. He relies on his own images, journalistic archives, as well as images captured by militants. To these voices and actions on the ground, those, more distant, of Geneviève Azam (economist), Geneviève Pruvost (sociologist) and Claire Dujardin (lawyer) are mixed. The collective intelligence, solidarity and alliances between the struggles scattered on the territory have not said their last word! FOLLOWED BY A MEETING WITH THE DIRECTOR
at 6.30 pm at the American Cosmograph MA DOTZE by Catherine AIRA (France, 2025, 1h30)
IN THE PRESENCE OF THE DIRECTOR Do you know the fans of vinyl, African sculptures, old books, sextoys, do you know the fans of the R12? A group of fans of this 1970s car gather in the village of the Twelve. This film is a journey into this small world, touching, poetic and mocking encounters with opponents of ambient mediocrity who have chosen to resist while celebrating the R12. A film to watch not to sink into languor.
