Une partie de nous s’est endormie
Sound Asleep
“I’m looking for my identity. Have you seen it?”… Djilali, a former long-term detainee, walks around in the protective obscurity of narrow streets. Sometimes Avignon’s architecture seems to symbolize his interiority and a dark itinerant past wizened inside him. Behind him, Marie Moreau is much more than a documentarist: clearly, their long and fruitful exchanges have nourished their wanderings. In this talking-walking film, the telling of dreams and possibly fictionalized autobiography merge into a shared project: “How many moments have you got? How many do you need to make a film?” inquires Djilali. The editing follows the dreamlike flow inherent to the states formerly induced by drugs and today by an appalling “psychological straightjacket”. “In spite of the roof, I consider myself as homeless”, confides the walker.
