Le Manteau de Michel Pacha

Travel diary filmed in Tamaris (near Toulon), Istanbul and Marseille, “Le Manteau de Michel Pacha” is a film-essay on exoticism. How can exoticism persist beneath the documentary? Between the imagery and the experience of travel, the numerous filmed portraits experience the fixity of a mental image. “The civil war replaced exoticism”: this film abruptly intersects with History.

Directed by Érik Bullot
