A reworking of anonymous amateur Super 8 footage evoking moments of happiness and exceptional pause, singular in their ordinariness: holidays, weddings, births, where family unity is summoned and the repetition of daily life is necessarily absent. These images take on the look of collective memories, whether lived, imagined, desired or heard retold, allowing us to sublimate our own history through the detour of others', treated differently by each artist: black and white by Laurence Faure, colour by Valérie Villieu, offering two possible readings.
