Women in Film Challenge 2021: [93/52] Haiti My Love, dir. Guetty Felin (Haiti, 2016)

When I was little, I used to think if I could stay up all night, I could help bring the new day. I would hear the first songs of the birds and watch the moon become the sun.

Take a journey through the cinematic education of Anisia Uzeyman, the Rwandan actress and director breaking onto the scene with her directorial premiere, Dreamstates (2016), and starring role in Guetty Felin’s Ayiti Mon Amour (2016).

Movies That Changed Anisia Uzeyman is the second in a REELYDOPE original series where we ask directors and actors to discuss the films that have made an impact on their lives. From the JLG to Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Uzeyman tells us about her earliest memories in the cinema all the way through the directors that have inspired her breakout film. This is a masterclass on independent film spoken from the heart of a true cineaste.
