​'Oiseaux-Tempête returns to its instrumental strength with Tlamess (Sortilège). Directed by Ala Eddine Slim, the film has been making the festival rounds while collecting accolades. Much of the impact can be attributed to the moody, evocative music, which the collective has been perfecting over the course of nearly a decade.' A CLOSER LISTEN - USA //"Une mise en scène brillante, à la fois opaque et ultra-sensorielle, agençant travellings hypnotiques et composition musicale électrique dans quelques plans séquences d’anthologie." LE MONDE - FR  //  'An intense, powerful & grating soundtrack' ECHOES & DUST - UK //  "Première fois que Oiseaux-Tempête signe une bande originale. Premier essai, premier coup de maître." SOUL KITCHEN - FR // 'Slim’s allegory of contemporary Tunisia is confounding, at times maddeningly so, but continues to fascinate for its entire runtime. Oiseaux-Tempête’s deliberately intrusive and oppressive soundtrack swells ominously.' INTERNATIONAL FILM SOCIETY - UK // "Une éblouissante dérive. Le cinéaste, qu’on pourrait dire héritier ou cousin de Sharunas Bartas et Apichatpong Weerasethakul, témoigne par sa liberté et sa confiance dans la puissance expérimentale du cinéma de l’effervescence artistique en Tunisie." LIBERATION - FR // 'The film’s striking cinematography creates a sensual world, oscillating between realism and more enchanted imagery. Nature is lusciously present, enhanced by Oiseaux-Tempête’s eerie, pervasive soundscape. And though dialogue is scarce, communication abounds as a new kind of language emerges between Slim’s two fascinating protagonists.' BFI - UK // "L'un des films les plus attendus de 2020" LES CAHIERS DU CINEMA - FR // 'the stirring music of Oiseaux-Tempete announces a fateful turning point.' HOLLYWOOD REPORTER - USA // "Quoi de plus logique que de retrouver Oiseaux-Tempête aux crédits d’une bande originale de film, lui dont le registre ne cesse de se couvrir d’apparats cinématographiques ?" MOWNO - FR // '​one of the most memorable films of the 2019 Cannes Film Festival' RFI
