Pacific Club
Synopsis
In 1979, the Pacific Club was opened in the basements of La Défense, the business district of Paris. It was the first nightclub for Arabs from the suburbs. Azedine, 18 years old at the time, tells us the forgotten story of this club and of this generation who dreamed of integrating into France but who soon came face to face with racism, the AIDS epidemic and heroin.

Changing Rooms, by Violette Gitton
César is 12 when his older sister Lou is sexually assaulted. In the changing rooms of the fencing classes he attends, everything is measured by the yardstick of violence. César would like to take part in every fight, but he doesn’t have the weapons.
