A collective project with students at a junior high school in a Paris suburb, about friendship, emancipation, trust, and the act of filmmaking for a generation raised by selfies and YouTube.
"The new work of director Eric Baudelaire, born in Salt Lake City and raised in Paris, is an intriguing collaborative documentary. It focuses on a group of students living in the "Zone 93", a stereotypically negatively perceived neighborhood of the outskirts of Paris and one of the poorest regions of France. Cameras and basic instructions on how to use them were provided, leaving the equipment in the hands of these teenagers for 4 years. In addition, there are moments when the students were recorded by the team while they talked about various topics. Thus, we are presented with a work with a lot of freshness and spontaneity. Touching on themes such as friendship, emancipation to adult life and the process itself and the implications of making a documentary, it is also an invitation to listen to these young people, who have much to teach about the way the world comes."
