"Tonight, we kill one of their own." Three young people are about to attack the police in a park on the outskirts of the Cité Pablo Picasso, in Nanterre, the town where Nahel died.
Riots in France
In June 2023, France suffers an unprecedented wave of riots after 17-year-old Nahel is shot dead by a police officer. For several days, the country's underprivileged neighborhoods are set on fire by its own inhabitants. A phenomenon I wanted to document from the rioters' point of view. This work won the Varenne prize for best young photographer in 2023.
