An emotional drama about love, identity, and resistance, told from within the Corsican independence struggle.
Antonia, a young local newspaper photographer on Corsica, falls head over heels for the dashing Pascal, a member of the armed separatist movement FLNC. Caught in the heart of nationalist movements shaking the foundations of France, Antonia uses her camera as a weapon while torn between duty, her pacifist values, and her love for Pascal. Spanning from the 1980s to the present day, director Thierry de Peretti delivers a comprehensive chronicle of Corsica’s multifaceted struggle for independence in a gripping drama of love and resistance. A life story captured through the lens of a woman who not only witnesses history but lives in the midst of it.
