The young activist, Celine Sciamma’s heart of cinema (Naissance des Peuvres, Portrait de la Fille Feu) is as notable for her intensity as for her sense of humor (at Pier Salvadori) and her instinctive relationship to reality (well understood by the Dardenne brothers). So this was essentially expressed in a sorority book club. Photo by Patrice Pierrot/ABACAPRESS.COM

Social and political philosophy, literature, the portrait of a woman in the French woman of Marie Ndiaye letters, romance… the choice is very polyphonic! “For me, Sandra Lubert is one of the greatest contemporary writers, both in literature and theory,” affirms Adele Hanel, who also praises Ndiaye, “a master writer, extremely powerful, whose novels are extremely beautiful and moving”. Adele Hanel and Nadege Buisson-Diagne participate in a march in support of women fighting for equality and against the Islamic Republic of Iran, Place des Fates, Paris, France on October 9, 2022.

The name Refat Alarir may be unfamiliar to you? He is a Palestinian writer who died last December. He was also a professor and an activist. Adèle Haenel says of her writing that it is as intimate as it is political. We hear him: “There cannot be silence around what is happening in Gaza. So, I wanted to give a voice to fight against this dense silence. All these lives matter!” Adèle Haenel – Committee performance November 19, 2022 International Day Against Sexual and Gender-Based Violence in Paris, France. PHOTO BY PATRICE PIERROT/ABACAPRESS.COM

We can see the actress in theater directed by Giselle Vienne in L’Etang (2021) and Le Voyage Sans Fin (2022).
