In the 1980s, a family departs from Asnières-sur-Seine in a van for Marseille and its mythical ferry to Algeria, from where they have immigrated. For the first time, Lydia spends a summer without her older sister, who has just married, while her father promises his children the discovery of a fabulous country for which he is nostalgic.

The film Après le soleil was produced and made in the frame of La Contemporaine de Nîmes (from April 5 to June 23, 2024) at the invitation of Anna Labouze and Keimis Henni. It was inspired by memories recounted by the artist’s mother and aunts.
