Chantier A. Re-discovering my life in Algeria
The coastal region of Kabylia, in Algeria, becomes the canvas of the colorful memories that awaken in the mind of Karim Loualiche on his return to the house where he grew up after a ten-year absence while living in France.
An endearing embrace of his mother is the first physical gesture we witness in this intimate accompaniment to a young man who, in his return to his homeland, looks in perspective at the sense of uprooting and rediscovers the reason why he had to leave his family behind.
