Under Your Fingers (2015)

overview : The day of the cremation of her grand mother, Emilie, a young mixed-race Asian girl, buries herself into her grandmother memories.

She relives with Linh the arrival into the camp of Sainte-Livrade, the exploitation of the Indochinese women by the market gardeners of Lot-et-Garonne. Between memories, dance, anger and traditional rituals, Emilie learns to accept this heritage.
