Documentary “Dreamers” has been acquired by Swiss sales agency. The film has its international premiere on April 23 at the 54th Visions du Réel film festival in Nyon, Switzerland, where it competes in the Burning Lights section.
The film is the third collaboration by Swiss directors Stéphanie Barbey and Luc Peter, following “Magic Radio,” shot in Niger, and “Broken Land,” which looked at the barrier erected at the border between the U.S. and Mexico. The story of “Dreamers” is also one of four close brothers, all with very different fates: the youngest, a chef, leads an almost normal life after obtaining papers following his marriage. While the eldest, Jorge, was deported to Mexico 15 years ago, forced to leave his two-month-old son, born an American citizen, behind. Jorge’s absence, accentuated by the fact that he never appears in the film, weighs heavily on Carlos’ family.
“Also, Chicago is a bit of a sanctuary city with a fairly tolerant policy regarding immigrants, which is not the case in the rest of Illinois for example.” “The film takes us into Carlos’ bubble, and so, it was a way to stay there completely, and not be distracted by the color, which sometimes can lighten things up a bit too much.
Barbey says: “His narrative ease, the rhythm of his words, his almost monochromatic tone combined with the power of his story, had already captivated us when we first met him for one hour via a non-governmental organization 11 years ago, while researching for ‘Broken Land.’The script, based on the conversations they had with Carlos over the years, brings a strong dramaturgy. “Before shooting, we went on location three times and followed him in his daily life.
