Matthieu Bareyre : 2018
Young and Alive

In the months following the terrorist attacks in Paris, the youth has taken the night. Led by new faces and unheard groups, with their values and ideals, they open a new dialogue, challenge the state and get ready for a new kind of revolution. From Charlie Hebdo's attacks to the presidential elections, a journey into the night with young people who don't sleep. Their dreams, nightmares, drunkenness, softness, boredom and tears. The parties, coffee terraces, jobs, the amnesia, their future. A unique insider's perspective to the French youth between 2015 and 2017, when atrocities were hitting the headlines and dark feelings of powerlessness and anxiety were abundant. Matthieu Bareyre's documentary was winner of the Europa Cinemas Label, Junior Jury Award and Special Jury Prize when it premiered in the Concorso Cineasti del presente section at Locarno Film Festival 2018.
