Casablanca – 2008

two-channel video/audio installation dvd, color, 19 min, loop

Shot in the city of Casablanca, this video installation shows a number of couples who, in front of the camera, recount their love stories and the ways in which they are interlinked with the city. We hear the narratives of four women, all of whom left their own country in order to be with men from another culture, expressing their thoughts about interculturalism. They talk to us about what it is that both unites and separates us, the renunciation of their previous lives, and the confusion that this can bring about.

Dans cette installation vidéo réalisée dans la ville de Casablanca, les témoignages des couples interrogées racontent devant la caméra leurs histoires d’amour liées à cette ville. Les récits de ces quatre femmes qui ont quitté leur pays pour suivre des hommes d’une autre culture, expriment l’interculturalité et nous parlent de ce qui nous unit et nous sépare, des renoncements à une vie précédente et le désarroi que celui-ci peut générer.
