Скачать или смотреть Viennale: “Writing Life”; I write to revenge my race

Can literature change life? Claire Simon says it is literature that shapes people’s lives during adolescence. Now, in a documentary called "Writing Life: Annie Ernaux Through the Eyes of High School Students" screened at the Viennale, Simon takes her camera among students from various French high schools, and each time she brings one of Annie Ernaux’s books—the Nobel Prize–winning author—into discussion with them.


The discussions take on different subjects and reveal various aspects of the issues of identity and race, cantered around the writer who says she writes to take revenge for her race.

In an exclusive interview with Mo Abdi at the Viennale, Simon talks about the making of this film.
