"De tout cĹur", editing by Safaa Fathy,2005 â During Jacques Derrida âs last years, Safaa Fathy filmed the philosopher âs public lectures. Safaa Fathy put together three of these original lectures in a film for the FIDMarseille festival. âDe tout cĹur â speaks of life and death, the Other and friendship. Derrida was unable to accept the invitation to attend the Writers âParliament in Strasbourg, so he sent an âopen letter to Palestine â. Facing the camera,he reads a collage of texts, excerpts from books and correspondence. The second fragment shows the statement on cloning made by Derrida, unique in his career, presented at the KlĂŠber bookstore in Strasbourg. Lastly ,on the occasion of a conversation filmed in a Paris University, Jacques Derrida and Jean-Luc Nancy deconstruct together and in public the imagination of the heart. These are three records of living words, three exercises in thinking on sight.
