The whole movie was designed around guided improvisation; the cast is almost solely composed of rappers living in and around Saint-Denis, who had never acted in front of a camera before. The whole movie is designed on the basis of guided improvisation, and the cast is almost solely composed of rappers living in and around Saint-Denis, who had never acted in front of a camera before. Pascal thus spent an intensive month teaching them Actor’s-Studio inspired acting techniques. The rappers in <i>Brooklyn</i> are all freestyle experts, bringing in an unprecedented freshness, spontaneity, and authenticity. Pascal gathered a collective of 40 people around the project, and launched the shooting in Saint-Denis with no more than 6000 euro in his pocket, without help of any producer, or TV channel! Only armed with two digital cameras and a determined crew, he threw himself in, helter-skelter! <i>Brooklyn</i> was part of the ACID film selection shown at the Cannes Film Festival last year, and has been touring international festivals worldwide <i>(Rio, Milan, Havana, Bucarest, New York, Lisbon, Goteborg, Tubingen-Stuttgart, Amsterdam etc.)</i> </p>

<strong>LES INTENTIONS DU REALISATEUR</strong> :</p>
<p>
<strong><img alt="3460603_ee510b70-74d1-11e3-9d4c-001517810df0-1421359879" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/152899/3460603_ee510b70-74d1-11e3-9d4c-001517810df0-1421359879.jpg"></strong></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
For his first feature film, Pascal wanted to create a Love letter song, an ode to the “Banlieue” and to the Hip Hop community of Saint-Denis, by following the chaotic path of a young woman, Coralie, who is going to fight to find her niche within this city and become the artist known as Brooklyn. To film in an intimate, instinctive, poetic and <strong>complex</strong> manner the life of a music association in the 93, away from the prevailing victimization and law-and order expectations, by showing the everyday life, work, and creative process of a group, along with its troubles. To bring to light all of the beauty and sensitivity of characters that have too long been underestimated or caricatured by French cinema and the media. To film with <strong>LOVE</strong> their humanity, their darkness and their dreams, in a world that becomes more and more cynical, ossified and disenchanted every day. Brooklyn’s utopia is to make Art together, expecting nothing in return but the satisfaction and pride of putting together, with our own weapons, a collective and personal work, which remains true to our lives.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Pascal also wanted to show the internal conflicts within rap where ideological divides contrast with life choices, and where generations sometimes clash. <strong>How to pass on values and ethics, a culture, a history and a proletarian memory? Who accepts it? Who rejects it and why? How does this generation change take place?</strong> Through the ardent rivalry that brings together Coralie/Brooklyn and Issa, the rising star of Saint-Denis, Pascal Tessaud tries to question the notion of Success. What does succeeding in life mean? Between individualism and collective mindset, the film goes beyond the microcosm of Hip Hop and manages to become <strong>universal</strong> through philosophical reflection on each one’s place within a group, a collective, within a society that is more and more fragmented, divided and violent. BROOKLYN questions the place of <strong>women</strong> in our society and reintroduces the notion that hopes and dreams are the only way to fight back. BROOKLYN is a resistant film, with at its core a group that refuses to abandon its principles, its struggles and its integrity so as not to sink into individualism and self-destructive resentment.</p>
