“Nek Aqimegh” — I am seated, meaning I am here and I remain…
Today I remain dumbstruck before this scourge that has fallen upon all of humanity, “naqim”, all together we are here …
The rest to follow, right away…
IMZAD
by Farida SELLAL, on the CONCEPT « VIVONS UN LIVRE »
The making of ten (10) programmes of 26 minutes
And a documentary of 52 minutes
Conception and direction : Farida Sellal
Co-direction: Nilda Ouziala
Production : ENTV
Within the framework of the concept « Vivons un livre » registered by Mme Farida Sellal, the book IMZAD published by Casbah Editions will give rise to the making of 10 programmes of 26 minutes each, presented and filmed according to the subject at hand.
A documentary of 52 minutes, assembled from the compilation of all the sequences, will be retained. Each programme will include a debate led by Mr Youcef Sayeh with internationally renowned specialist scholars, in the presence of Mme Farida Sellal and of all the Tuareg of the Ajjer and the Ahaggar.
The central set will be established at Dar el Imzad, Tamanrasset. Of the 10 programmes filmed and produced, only four were broadcast.
One day, perhaps, I shall be asked about the other programmes, all of the highest calibre.
OPENING CREDITS: The identity of the programme; its duration is 42 seconds, filmed and directed by Farida Sellal.
