| Résumé: | For several decades, migratory issues have become an important subject for contemporary societies whose cinema has played a major role. As a source and research tool, the cinema helps us understand the history of migration and underlines the way in which society deals with alterity through the mobilisation of the foreigner. The interview with Andrea Segre, famous director and scriptwriter of internationally acclaimed documentaries and films, highlights the capacity of the cinema to open up news worlds – and not only to reflect existing ones. In these worlds, differences between people not so much an obstacle but the foundation of our common humanity. |
