Drift
Jérémie Danon and Kiddy Smile
Synopsis
In the middle of the night, on the roads on the outskirts of the city, women and men travel together by car. Over the course of one night, these passengers engage in intimate discussions about the representation of black identities in France’s cultural and media landscape. As conversations move from one car to the next, the film unfolds, words emerge, clash and meet again - as the night moves into day.
