The Republic's Couriers

Les Coursiers de la République

21st TDF: Greek Premiere

Three young men who live in the degraded Parisian suburbs (banlieues) work as bicycle couriers, sweeping every day the flooded by tourists streets of the metropolitan area. Although they have spent their whole life in the marginalized suburbia, they find that, with this job, the Place de la République feels now like their territory, serving as provisional home base and intersection point. An effortless observation of common people, as if their story happened in passing.
