Since 2015, Ysé Tran, a filmmaker of Vietnamese origin, has been retracing the journey of Indochinese workers who settled in Lorraine after World War II. She stopped at FRAC several times to research the territory. Her long, meticulous work reveals a little-known piece of local history through unpublished archival documents and family photos… Let’s try to understand the private lives of those workers whose individual experiences are part of our shared past.
Ysé Tran directed several fictional short films shown in film festivals in France and abroad. She is a writer and co-editor, and participant in various art installations. 49 Nord 6 Est has supported her latest film, Une histoire oubliée (2017).
