David the Tolhildan
Mano Khalil | Kurdistan / Switzerland | 2007 | 54 mins | Documentary/Digi Beta-English, French,German version.
seven years ago, David Rouiller ran away from his life in Switzerland; giving up the amenities of his western lifestyle to commit his life to joining the Kurdish freedom movement PKK. If this is not cause for surprise in itself, we learn that this man is the son of a former President of the Swiss Federal Supreme Court.
Director Mano Khalil follows this man's journey in his documentary as adjusts to his new surroundings and questions the motives for his actions. Is he escaping or confronting his fears and insecurities? Is he an adventurer, a dreamer, an idealist or a hero? Is his commitment visionary or illusory?
David the Tohildan provides an insightful and contemporary observation of the Kurdish freedom movement and the country's political situation. Most importantly, the documentary also serves as a mirror for the audience to reflect our own outlook on oppression, respect, human dignity, freedom and violence.
