"Même pas peur!" ("I'm not a bit afraid!")

Paris, 13 novembre 2015.

After a coordinated terror attack in the heart of france 130 people have lost their lives and more than 352 get hurt.

The shock runs deep.

From my district in Paris, i decide to go to 10th and 11th arrondissement to understand and to process what has happened the night before.

In the early afternoon a few grieving people are on the spots.

Radio and tv stations report from the tragedy. It is an oppressive mood.

Before i begin my reportage, i reconstruct the attacks and i walked from the restaurant le petit cambodge and the bar le carillon (rue alibert) to the boulvard voltaire close to the bataclan.

The expression and the sympathy of the people touched me deeply.

I have not addressed the focus of my work on the grieving people. It was more important to me to show her actions in this sad story.

These pictures have emerged with mindfulness and respect. It has needed courage to go so close to the places, where it is so much pain and suffering to innocent people.
