Ce que les zones de guerre m’ont appris… | Kamal Redouani | TEDxCaen
Il y a des histoires que l’on vit dans les zones de guerre et que l’on ne raconte pas. Elles font partie de notre mémoire. Alors, le temps d’un TEDx, j’aimerais vous en dévoiler une. C’est une histoire où l’humain reprend sa place au cœur de l’action, où la passion guide nos choix, loin des contraintes imposées. C’est le moment où l’on ose sortir du cadre pour cesser de se contenter de ce qu’on attend de nous. Et paradoxalement, c’est en brisant ces barrières que l’on retrouve un vrai sentiment de liberté.
Réalisateur, grand reporter et écrivain, Kamal Redouani est un explorateur intrépide des zones les plus tumultueuses du globe. Spécialiste du monde arabe, il a consacré plus de deux décennies à la compréhension des enjeux géopolitiques, naviguant à travers la complexité des conflits en Syrie, au Liban, en Irak, en Libye et au Maghreb au prix d’un enlèvement en Syrie de cinq jours par un groupe djihadiste. Son travail a été salué pour son audace et sa précision, lui valant plusieurs prix dans des festivals de film internationaux. Ce grand reporter ne se contente pas de documenter l'histoire ; il vit l'histoire, tout en éclairant le monde avec ses récits poignants et ses analyses pertinentes.
