'Les Chenilles' is a directorial debut of the Lebanese duo Michelle and Noel Keserwany.
MAD Solutions has acquired the Arab world distribution rights to Michelle and Noel Keserwany’s Lebanese short film Les Chenilles — a laureate of the Golden Bear for Best Short Film at the 73rd Berlinale International Film Festival.
The film is also nominated for Best Short Film at the European Film Academy Awards, received the Jury Award at the Malmö Arab Film Festival, won an Audience Award at the Champs-Elysees Film Festival, and screened at several prestigious international film festivals, including the Format Court Festival, Lichter Filmfest, Golden Harvest Film Festival, Diaspora Film Festival, Kurzfilm Festival, Champs-Elysees Film Festival, and the Golden Ger International Film Festival.
Les Chenilles is a 30-minute short about two girls who meet in France while working as waitresses, and it’s an exploration of friendship and female independency. The movie premiered in Berlinale in the attendance of the Keserwany sisters and the stars of the film.
Written and directed by Michelle Keserwany, Les Chenilles stars Noel Keserwany — who also co-directed it — and Masa Zaher. Meanwhile, MAD Solutions is handling its distribution in the Arab world and Italy-based Lights On is acting as its international sales agent.
