From AR to IRL, Seven Grams depicts the reality 

After being presented out of competition at the New Images Festival and having aroused enthusiasm at the Assises internationales du Journalisme in Tours at the end of September, Seven Grams is now being offered a new perspective at the Bayeux-Calvados Normandy Award for War Correspondents. Indeed, through an exhibition of objects collected during his investigation, Karim Ben Khelifa offers us to discover his work from another perspective. Through these various artifacts and in addition to the AR app, the journalist/filmmaker reduces the gap we can have with the manufacturing process of our smartphones and its human and environmental consequences.   
An exhibition that you can discover until October 31st!   

Espace d’art actuel Le Radar  

24 rue des Cuisiniers, Bayeux  

Open from Tuesday to Sunday from 2:30 pm to 6:30 pm, Saturday from 2 pm to 7 pm.

Free entrance.
