　　他的镜头是打开的心眼，在最细微处直视灵魂，看到巴西巨坑五万掏金者的集体面相，看到科威特油井冲天大火的真正英雄，看到非洲的死亡延续着生存。每次的拍摄方案都是经年的万里长征，是人神共舞，每次成果都引起巨大回响。合导的儿子伴着老爸远征，只见他用海象的视角，拍出但丁的地狱。再来到地球重病的现在，他重建了一座森林。云温达斯最心仪的传奇摄影师萨尔加多，就是大地之盐。获康城影展某种观点评审团特别奖，入围角逐奥斯卡最佳纪录片。

　　Samedi lives in a village in Wallonia. He works from time to time as a gardener and has a close relationship with his mother. Everyday life in the village, which has seen better times, Samedi's quiet and friendly nature and the still largely intact rural setting stand in stark contrast to the heroin addiction Samedi has suffered from for over 20 years, which only his family knows about. His relationship with his mother changes when he makes another attempt to get clean. Paloma Sermon-Daï’s documentary paints a restrained, highly precise picture of a relationship marked by affection and love but which is also difficult to define in relation to Samedi's problem. As the camera observes the long, concentrated conversations he has with both his mother and his therapist, a picture of addiction comes into view which is part of a family structure. This becomes embedded in something larger in turn via the individual images of the village. Petit Samedi creates an image of dependence in which individual, family and social coexistence are intertwined, without falling into the trap of saying what might be able to solve the problem.
