Of my mother, there remain a few super 8 films, sequences of silent lives, a reflection of what was her life, brief, secret and silent. Of my father, there are no images except perhaps the ones my features have inherited. My very existence is the only proof of the meeting between this young woman of the 70s and this Tunisian student passing through our town. Before becoming a mother myself, I want to try to find this man. He turned out to be the former president of the student organisation of Tunisian students. During our first meeting he said to me while I put a photograph of my mother at his coffee table : "I have seen this woman before".
