Planète Marseille, enfants des Comores 2016 Directed by Charlotte Penchenier
In Marseille, one in ten inhabitants comes from the Comoros, they maintain a very rich community life and strong ties with their islands of origin. A sometimes heavy weight to bear for young people grown up in France, who have aspirations other than the sacrosanct Comorian “great marriage” and respect for traditions. Fatima, Anzui and Faiswal meanwhile try to weave daily links between the different parts of their identity, between cultures and generations. Reflections of a mixed society, they invent new models, cultivating both their independence and attachment to their origins.
