“When I was born, my father had already gone back to the US. For some reason I cannot explain, his mother refused to inform him that I was born. I know just a few things about him; his name; his date of birth; his height and his profession from then: soldier. When I told Sébastien Lifshitz my story, he offered to go find my father in the US together, and to make a movie out of it…”

«The heady charm of La Traversée lies in this great gap which mixes exhibition and modesty, documentary and fiction, unease and appeasement.»
