PACIFIC CLUB

Q: What themes or concepts drive your filmmaking, particularly in your film “Pacific Club”?
A: I am obsessed with the concept of disappearance, as an event of fate but also as a political event. Why stories disappear, why entire groups are erased, why certain people decide to disappear. I make films to question this event, to question the things that we don’t see, that we just feel without being able to put into words or images. Pacific Club is a film to fill the silence, to tell the story of a place that no longer exists. The only trace of this place is the memory of Azedine, that must be recorded, saved, and finally given a voice, though the time of a film.
