Debaters (2018)

55min   |   Français   | Allumage / LCP | Directed by: Julie Chauvin

Fatou, Zouhoudi, Assia, Gabriel are 14 years old. The school they’re attending is nestled in the projects of the suburbs of Paris. They’ve decided to form a debate club where they can talk about what matters most to them: gender equality, immigration, voting.

It's a democratic forum of their own making where they discover freedom of conscience and freedom of speech. Here, everything’s in play : their own identities, their nascent opinions, how they fit in the world and why they want to be heard.
