As part of the Resonance film screenings at the Art & Industrie 2023 Triennial, the Maison d’Arrêt de Dunkerque is screening the film A Carp Jump In His Mind as part of its Le souffle, l’air et l’eau programme.

A Carp Jump In His Mind, 2005, 33′.

We will see nothing of this film. A voice tells the story. The voice of a young Japanese man wandering in the mountains around Hiroshima, 60 years on. The story of the atomic bomb runs through its representations, including in manga, what it becomes through the eyes of this young man, and what it conjures up in our imagination.
