Between February and October 2016 Gilles Raynaldy photographed the Calais "Jungle" during the nine months that preceded the eviction of the refugees living there. In a diary that punctuates the images he recounts his own experience as a foreigner welcomed by the inhabitants of a camp that had become a place of common life, despite precariousness and repression.
