Brahim Tsaki

Died in 2021

Brahim Tsaki was born on 27 December 1946 in Sidi Bel Abbès. He studied at the school of dramatic art in Bordj El Kiffan, near Algiers, then in Belgium, from which he graduated in directing in 1972, and returned to work on the newsreels of the public office. His characters speak little, are often deaf and mute, and are almost always children; he devoted a triptych to them, shot with rudimentary means. He signed only four feature films in thirty years, the last in 2007, and was preparing with his son a film that he did not shoot. He died in Paris on 5 September 2021.
