Stand Up, Stand Tall: The Cinema of Euzhan Palcy I Berlinale Talents 2023
“With my camera I don’t shoot, I heal,” Euzhan Palcy said about her filmmaking philosophy as she accepted an Honorary Oscar last November as a pioneering filmmaker whose groundbreaking significance in international cinema is cemented in film history. Her classic “Sugar Cane Alley” (1983), selected by Ava DuVernay for this year’s Berlinale Retrospective on Coming-of-Age, helped putting her native Martinique on cinema’s world stages, and went on to nab over 17 international prizes. For Euzhan, filmmaking is a mission. Her spirit of collaboration and communication, be it with studio executives, Hollywood icons like Marlon Brando or technicians on set, has allowed Euzhan to deal with unpredictable circumstances on various film sets. Always true to her storytelling vision, she has become an inspiration for many, fighting for gender parity, and for a stronger representation of marginalised groups in front of and behind the camera. For the first time with Berlinale Talents at the Berlinale, here’s a chance not to be missed to join her on this important journey.
