Mekki, Benjamin et Grace ont fait des études universitaires en France avant de tenter d’intégrer le monde du travail. Qu’on soit Algérien, Camerounais ou Franco-Congolaise, les opportunités en tant que Noir ou Maghrébin sont-elles différentes d’un pays à l’autre, d’un continent à l’autre ?

La route de l'Eldorado
Ils et elles ont quitté leur pays pour la France avant de choisir de s’installer au Canada. Ils et elles nous racontent la France, son accueil, ses opportunités, mais aussi ses blocages. Après leur expérience française ils ont finalement atterri à Montréal, Ottawa ou Vancouver, où Halima Elkhatabi les a rencontrés. Après la Route du Bled, Halima Elkhatabi tisse avec finesse onze récits qui racontent un double exil avec émotion et lucidité. Une coproduction ARTE Radio - Radio Canada qui permet de passionnants regards croisés sur la France et la Canada.
