Concrete Fissures

EN (description en français en dessous)Nearby ENS Louis-Lumire, Saint-Denis, there is a massive construction going on. Constant and severe construction noises are devouring the entire neighborhood. Saint-Denis has been scheduled to host the Olympic Village when Paris Olympic 2024 starts. Due to this, former residents who lived there were violently evicted/relocated since the new construction took place. Concrete Fissures focuses on how soundscapes can change due to these gentrification-capitalist causes. By using interviews of construction workers, neighbors, anti-Olympic activists, and a former evicted resident, the sound documentary uncovers the hidden story behind the nation-led Olympic Games. And the journey begins to bring back our own memories of the past Olympics held in Greece and Korea.Authors :Sohyeon Park is a documentary filmmaker, writer, and video journalist.

De constants bruits de chantier dévorent tout le quartier. Il a été prévu que Saint-Denis accueille le village olympique lors des Jeux olympiques de Paris en 2024. De ce fait, les ancien.ne.s habitant.e.s qui y vivaient ont été violemment expulsé.es et réinstallé.e.s ailleurs jusqu’à ce que les nouvelles constructions sortent de terre. « Concrete Fissures » se concentre sur la façon dont les paysages sonores peuvent changer en raison de la gentrification-capitaliste. En utilisant des interviews de travailleur/se.s des chantiers, de voisin.ne.s, de militant.e.s anti-olympiques et d'un ancien résident expulsé, le documentaire sonore dévoile une histoire cachée derrière les Jeux olympiques.
