The utopian drift of a group of pirates who don’t want to go under: a call for new protest imaginaries.

After Je suis devenue ma vérité, Sarah Eltschinger from Fribourg tells the strange and funny story of a group of self-proclaimed pirates. Despite being attacked by enemy ships, they want to make their way to a place that doesn’t matter. Their ship is Le Carpatie. In 1912, it came to the aid of those shipwrecked on the Titanic. In 1918, it was torpedoed by a German submarine. To this day, the wreck lies at the bottom of the ocean. Yet its occupants speak to us. They seem mad, caught up in the memory of a past that unites them, but about which their memories and identities sometimes play tricks on them. Pirates among pirates, pirates in a world where institutions have collapsed to make way for extreme competitiveness.
