Listen To the Beat of our Images: The story of the French space conquest through a new perspective.


(click on titles in column to the right to see individual film details below)Sentience starkly contrasts the stunning beauty of Guanxi Provence's ancient mountains and the abrasive imposition of modernity playing out on Yangshou's famous fourteen hundred-year-old West Street.

60 years ago, the French government decided to establish its space center in Kourou (French Guiana, South America). 600 guyanese people were expropriated to allow France realize its dream of space conquest. Combining field investigation and video-editing processes on archives, the film gives a voice to an invisibilized and silenced population.
