Turkish Delight
Turkish Delight follows the story of the production of lokum (Turkish Delight), one of the most emblematic delicacies of Turkish culinary culture, that extends from Western Anatolia to the Greek island of Syros. Known as ’rahat-ul hulkum’ in Arabic and ’lokoumi’ in Greek, ’lokum’ came to be called as ’Turkish Delight’ at the end of the 19th century, when nationalist policies were introduced, and became the breadbasket for refugees fleeing the war that would soon begin. The film tells part of the story of Syros, which was built with the labour of Greek (Rum in Turkish) refugees from Anatolia and the islands, and focuses on the forced separation of peoples who lived together for centuries.

Pacifique, à la rencontre du Costa Rica
We are living in a crucial moment in the history of humanity, where not only the configuration of the future, but the very possibilities of survival are being decided. A fundamental change in our relationship with nature is the only way out of this emergency. The notions of domination, control and exploitation should give way to those of cohabitation, partnership, synergy and pacification. For a small Central American country, this is already a reality. Indeed, Costa Rica is the third country in the world to have abolished the death penalty in 1877, then abolished its army in 1948. The army's budget was transferred to education and the protection of biodiversity. Today, 25% of its territory is classified as a park or nature reserve and the country is home to 6% of the world's biodiversity, for an area of 0.03%. It is through the example of Costa Rica that we want to demonstrate that it is possible to be PACIFIC with the Earth, to safeguard biodiversity.
