    Moscow, Tehran, Ankara, Beijing, Delhi—but also Washington… From all sides, empires are back and are joining forces against old Europe. At last, revealed through a sweeping historical fresco, is the forgotten story that explains today’s global chaos: how the old Eastern empires, fascinated by the West, modernized themselves at the beginning of the 20th century by chasing technological and social progress. They abandoned their identity and traditions in favor of Westernization, modernization, and secularism—mostly through totalitarian revolutions. Then, around the 1980s, they gradually or abruptly turned back toward religious obscurantism. The film tells this complex story and, in parallel, deciphers the dark side of imperial America—its civil religion and its militaristic imagination. It explains why and how force and violence are now prevailing over human rights in the name of religion. Striking and powerful, this historical fresco—featuring previously unseen footage—sheds light on the true nature of the major existential challenges we face today as French and European citizens.

Five Broken Cameras

Five broken cameras – and each one has a powerful tale to tell. Embedded in the bullet-ridden remains of digital technology is the story of Emad Burnat, a farmer from the Palestinian village of Bil’in, which famously chose nonviolent resistance when the Israeli army encroached upon its land to make room for Jewish colonists. Emad buys his first camera in 2005 to document the birth of his fourth son, Gibreel. Over the course of the film, he becomes the peaceful archivist of an escalating struggle as olive trees are bulldozed, lives are lost, and a wall is built to segregate burgeoning Israeli settlements.
