A Visit From Mahamat-Saleh Haroun
Awarded annually by Harvard’s Film Study Center, the 2008 Genevieve McMillan and Reba Stewart Fellowship for Distinguished Filmmaking was awarded to Mahamat-Saleh Haroun (b.1961), the Chadian filmmaker now living in France. As an extension of the HFA’s retrospective of Haroun’s films this April, we are offering a second program this fall highlighting the director’s most recent work. The selection also reveals the broad parameters of Haroun’s filmmaking: both documentary and fiction, feature film and short, diaristic and poetic, African and European, classically distanced and warmly intimate.
Please note that Haroun's in-person appearances have been canceled.
