2018 - Belgique/France - Couleur et Noir & Blanc - 28'
The island of Ouessant is off the very tip of Brittany. The film’s director, as she immerses herself in the life of the island, plunges into the footage and, somewhere between dream and reality, she identifies with Barba, a girl from Ouessant whose father disappeared at sea without a trace. How, then, can she grieve? The film adopts the form of an ethnographic tale, halfway between an anthropological documentary and a work of fiction.
In the presence of the director.
Debate on Friday, 24 at 9:30 am in the press room.
