The film is an unconventional composition made of material gathered over many years, on several continents. The two directors, Nicolas Klotz and Elisabeth Perceval, start from a script based on a novel by William Faulkner, about the escape of a slave, on which they develop semi-improvised scenes in Brazzaville, Barcelona, and Paris, where the “fugitives” of today, the refugees, try to build a life for themselves. It is a movie about those who run away from the history which condemned them to slavery and from a present which condemns them to poverty and a perpetual chase for „something slightly better” one can only obtain in a Western country, after having risked their life. It is at the same time an almost experimental endeavour built around dance as a means for liberation and forgetting yourself, and the expression of a sincere curiosity towards people and the infinite possibilities of the image. Although one of the conclusions is well-known – there is no victory, because what matters is the struggle, the confrontation -, the message is one of mobilization: “When some say ‘crisis,’ we say ‘revolution.’” (Sorana Stănescu)
