MUBI debuted the official trailer for We (Nous), the Berlinale award-winning documentary from filmmaker Alice Diop. We (Nous) will open theatrically in NY on June 22 at the Museum of Modern Art, to be followed by a global streaming release on June 29.
The film is a vital and entrancing look at the largely Black and immigrant communities in the Parisian suburbs whose lives and livelihoods are connected by the RER B, the commuter train that traverses the city from north to south.
Winner of the Best Film – Encounters Section, and Documentary Award at 2021 Berlinale, this deeply empathetic work seeks to preserve the existence of ordinary lives. From cleaning ladies to nurses, writers to hunters, Diop focuses her camera on a diverse array of subjects who form a panoramic portrait of contemporary Paris, as she explores the divisions that haunt France’s present, and wonders what could hold such a fractured nation together.
