CONVERSATIONS FROM CALAIS
Documentary film
Director - Anya Ostrovskaia
DOP - Mariana C.P. Vaz.
I met Matilda Della Torre (creative leader) of the project "Conversations from Calais" in London, we talked a lot about immigration, privileges, and what it means for her, a girl from France to come back from "Calais" to London every time, making a simple train journey, that for Calais refugees could be their last one.
I’ve followed her around London, documenting how she carefully posts the posters around the most privileged and richest areas of the city, and I realized that this is what the film should be about. About the collision of the world, Londoners passing by the posters, not seeing them, and then suddenly seeing them and asking themselves: How lucky I am?
