"Papa, where are you?" and "Supplication to our ghosts": two documentaries confronting childhood traumas

This week, two films tackle childhood trauma, exploring the possibility of healing through dialogue. "Papa où t’es ?" follows Nicolas Trouvé, a video creator who, after overcoming a troubled past, seeks to find his father in Senegal. Having been in foster care due to abuse, he hopes that reconnecting with his father will help him move on from his past. The film adopts a vlog style, featuring personal narration, dynamic editing, and on-the-ground reporting from Senegal, as Nicolas shares his emotional journey and the challenges he faces in his search.
