L. Ville

L.Ville, the city and “She”. “She” : a factory worker or a student, a mother or daughter, a nurse or a bargirl. The city: Tananrive. Rambling suburbs, rough housing that stretches further and further from the city, hours of transport in endless traffic jams, sky-high rents, a run-down school, giant factories to the glory of globalisation and the return of slavery, the nocturnal district of nightclubs and prostitution. L.Ville: the long march of women to conquer their independence, their own and their country’s. An ideal set out after the end of the Second World War and which Madagascar has never achieved. She+she: a nation on the march. “I believe in the future of Madagascar, not in my boss.” (Yann Lardeau)
