Akaboum
by Manon Vila • 2019 • France
This is the story of a gang of teenage boys from the north-western part of Paris. We follow them in their wanderings, from the suburb of Cergy to that of Marne-la-Vallée. Somewhere between documentary and fiction, we are plunged into the superimposed worlds of the gangs' experiences and fantasies—a portrait of contemporary suburban youth seeking to invent a new collective identity against the backdrop of France in the throes of recession.
