La beauté c'est ta tête

Through the lens of a camera, ZimmerFrei observes the “temporary cities” which are shedding their skin and sometimes even their soul. Temporary Cities is a series of singular documentaries representing a veritable collection of urban portraits, in particular within the framework of the IN SITU network: Brussels, Copenhagen, Budapest and now Marseille to name but a few. Using the tales collected from inhabitants or users, ZimmerFrei develops a fiction which is both personal and collective by revealing the invisible walls which criss-cross the city beyond the separation of public space and private land. The filming takes the form of a listening point for these citizens' narratives where large-scale urban renovation serves as the scenery while the challenge of writing day-to-day history is played out in the alleyways. The people encountered become co-authors of the film thanks to the tales they tell. In Marseille, Temporary Cities has found its epicentre ah the heart of the Noailles district. As an avant-première, Beauty is your head will be screened among the inhabitants at the heart of Noailles.
