D'une pierre deux coups
Fejria Deliba
Zayane is 75, and hasn't left her neighbourhood for years. One day she gets a letter announcing the death of a man she knew many years ago, in Algeria. In the space of a day, she leaves to collect a box that the man left to her. While she is away, her 11 children meet up in her flat and discover a side to their mother that they were all unaware of until then…

Fejria Deliba was one of Jacques Rivette's Bande des quatre (The Gang of Four) or Zouina in Inch'allah dimanche by Yasmina Benguigui, and won several acting awards. She started on stage with Antoine Vitez.
She is L'Aziza in Balavoine's clip, or the woman who emancipates herself from the weight of tradition for R. Krim.
On television and on film for Jean-Claude Brisseau, Olivier Assayas, Sólveig Anspach, Mehdi Charef, Cédric Kahn, Olivier Ducastel and Jacques Martineau... Alongside Leïla Bekhti, she filmed for Nora Hamdi or Géraldine Nakache and Hervé Mimran in Tout ce qui brille. After her multi-award-winning short film Le Petit Chat est mort, D'une pierre deux coups is her first feature. The script won the audience award at the Festival Premiers Plans d'Angers in 2014.
“D'une pierre deux coups is a human comedy in the form of a family portrait: a French family of Algerian origins, a big family of ten children who have all taken different paths, some of them taking them far away. D'une pierre deux coups weaves together this double rhythm of Zayane's journey and the siblings' waiting, half-way between a road-movie and a coming of age film. My film explores family ties and their knots, love and the passing of time. In this story of emancipation, the singular and intimate story of Zayane is reminiscent, in the background, of a collective history, the common history of France and Algeria. In that, D'une pierre deux coups is a fly-on-the-wall photo of this day unlike any other in Zayane's life, and which will turn upside-down and reshape the whole balance of the family.
