The first of the Altaïr conferences in Saint-Lô, for the 2024-2025 season, took place on November 6, 2024 with the screening of the film Guyana. Can I show it to my son?
asks a spectator who knows Guyana. Yes, there are no violent images
replies director Yohann Brichet. In this film which tours Guyana, I try to show its hidden treasures. This project started ten years ago, I lived there for two years, I was a teacher. It took me four years to edit.
At reception, just two people give the upcoming program, Jacqueline and Pierre Bulot are the organizers of the conferences in Saint-Lô, but they want to pass on the baton. “To organize these film conferences, it is necessary to agree on the dates between Altaïr and the Departmental Archives which lend their conference room, disseminate the information, ensure reception and manage the accounts”, explain Jacqueline and Pierre Bulot.
Over the years, the couple has garnered beautiful memories. “Several meetings left an impression on us: a Russian who presented Kamtchatka, a Breton whose subject was the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel with whom we had a gala evening. For the arrival of Antoine (the singer) we had to refuse people, there were 180 people. »
The formula for these sessions, which is based on “a beautiful film and a debate, please. It's a way of traveling and getting to know the world better thanks to the directors who come to share their knowledge. »
