Anne Diatkine あんぬ・でぃあときん Winner

Actor Bulle Ogier revisits theatre, cinema, artistic friendships, and private memories, including the death of her daughter Pascale. From the border between memory and forgetting, the book reveals both the radiance of artistic life and the vulnerability beneath it.

A voice speaking of what has been forgotten illuminates what was never truly lost.
