For managing, in just a few minutes, to make the world understand what leads to a coup d'état, police repression, fear and the courage of ordinary people living or trying to survive it all.

A short animated film that takes us into all the wars of the world through the evocative power of its images. It is an immersion that aims at resurfacing.
