Film


A presence lurks in a Parisian suburban town, stalking its inhabitants. More and more people are disappearing. Nassim, a young boy, is kicked out of his house one evening, spends the night outdoors, where he feels he is being followed.

Paco


I am a French video artist born in Paris on 4 May 1994. I make films, sculptures and installations. My work is based in the Seine-Saint-Denis district where I grew up. It’s where I experiment with multiple recording and writing devices. In my films, the writing is passed from hand to hand, the camera from one eye to another. The participation of local residents is fundamental, enabling me to envisage a collective response to the media spectre hanging over this area.
