We all know that last November, more precisely on November 11, 2021, the film Fréda, by Géssica Généus, was selected for the 94th Academy Awards ceremony which will take place on March 27, 2022.
Unfortunately, Fréda is no longer in the running, so the adventure ends here.
The director and actress Gessica Généus announced it herself through a post on Facebook on Thursday:
“Nou pa rive nan dènye seleksyon pou Oscar yo. Lè w fin kalifye, se Akademi Oska yo ki deside kilès k ap rive nan seleksyon final lan. Lè sa a, pèsonn pa konnen tout detay ki motive desizyon manb yo. Gen vòt… prensipalman se tout sa konnen…” said Mrs. Généus.
However, she tried to console her fans and the public in general by stating and we quote: “Pa pran sa tankou yon bagay pou nou tris. M pa tris menm si mwen te vrèman anvi nou ale pi lwen. M pa tris paske lavi se sa, ou eseye tout sa ou kapab. Tout kote opòtinite a ye ou pran l…”
With humility, she says: “FREDA rive kote nou pa t menm panse li t ap rive. E l ap kontinye fè nou sipriz. Mwen kontan pou sa
Let’s note that her last award dates back to November 14, 2021, that of the best film TV5 Quebec Canada at the 27th edition of the film festival CINEMANIA.
Gessica Généus presented her thanks to all her Haitian and foreign supporters as well as to all her team, indicating that the love of the 7th art is a positively contagious virus.
