One of the best surprises at this year’s Film Festival has been a new movie that throws new light on the people of Aubervilliers, one of the most deprived and roughest districts around Paris. The film is a daringly structured mix of a series of events all taking place during a day, interspersed with interviews with past and present residents of the area. Despite this being a somewhat unflattering look at the area, the Mayor of Aubervilliers is obviously pleased with the film: he came to the screenings here in Cannes to show his support!
