Les apaches

Reviewed by Beatrice 23. June 2023

Corsica, a luxury villa overlooking the sea among the rocks.

A group of workers are preparing the house for the summer season. Among them is Aziz, the son of one of the maintenance workers, who wanders curiously into the dwelling where the next day he and friends will spend an abusive night of luxury. Some of them will steal items including two collectible rifles.

In a context in which the fathers' generations do not discuss the diversity' of social status, accepting it as given, the sons seem not to go along with it at all, not through social-political struggles but simply living the absolute present made of immediate satisfaction of needs, without the search for structured and responsible change. This unconscious attitude will lead the children to experience a situation that will mark them irreversibly.

Executioners and victims of themselves, simultaneously absent presences for those privileged rich who do not hesitate to ignore them even as mere human semblances.

Essential, dry, direct, anti-rhetorical, strong act of social denunciation: powerful.
