Set in the town of Barlin, she follows the daily fight of residents against real estate developers who seek to push them to move. Faced with this pressure, the people of Barlin, under her guidance, enact a poetic resistance against an invisible enemy, humorously represented by a huge excavator.

?

Today's ethnic tourism industry tends to standardise local folklore. The three parts of this video triptych involve respectively villagers from The White Mountain, in the Tetouan province of Morocco, members of a Lahu tribe in northern Thailand and inhabitants of the Camargue region in the south of France.

?

This video was commissioned by the Maison des Femmes du Hedas in the city of Pau, located close to the Spanish border on the Atlantic coast of France. For more than thirty years, this center welcomed women of all nationalities who often shared the experience of precariousness and exile or emigration.

?

"La Brigada" was made in collaboration with a group of shoe shiners in La Paz, the Capital of Bolivia. The men and women belonging to this fragile, stigmatised workforce, who cover their faces with ski masks to avoid being recognised, attract the attention of pedestrians by tapping on their colourful wooden shoe-shine boxes.

?

For "Abus de souffle" (Out of Breath), Bertille Bak returned to Tetouan in northern Morocco, where she had already filmed "Boussa from the Netherlands". This time, she chose to collaborate with the last craftsman specialising in the making of the bellows used to kindle a dire, known locally as rbuz.

?

This piece echoes a part of Bak's own family rooted in the coal-mining region of the Pas-de-Calais. In these five videos made simultaneously, the artist addresses present-day child labour in five countries : India, where children extract coal; Indonesia, tin; Thailand, gold; Bolivia, silver; and Madagascar, sapphires.

?

For this project, Bak went to northern Morocco to meet women working as shrimp peelers for a Dutch company. The shrimp are fished in the Netherlands, transported in refrigerated trucks to be prepared in Tetouan and then sent back to their starting point for marketing. "Boussa from the Netherlands" shows the women, a source of cheap labour for the multinationals, paid on a piecework basis, carrying out their activity in deplorable conditions, without any social protection.

?

Le Tour de Babel (The Tour of Babel) explores a cruise liner, a technological marvel that is a sumptuous floating town where the worlds of work and leisure coexist. But it is also a place where workers from all over the globe are often exploited and "invisible". Here, workers decorators crew and tourists move through spaces that are reserved from some and off-limits for others, in a kind of regulated choreography.

?

In 2011, 2012 and 2013, Bertille Bak met a sibling group of 5 hunter-skidders living independently in the heart of the Alsatian forest, in the hamlet of Ursprung, whose daily life she then shared. Guardians of hunting quotas, animal species regulation, trackers and woodworking, the artist observed the organization of the hunting troops, the traditions and codes that survive and are perpetuated. In her film Le Hameau, Bertille Bak plunges us into the world of this family, a timeless immersion in the Ursprung, which literally means "the jump of the watch" in Alsatian. Close to the research of the ethnologist and concerned by social conditions, Bertille Bak collects and archives the traces and testimonies of the people she meets. With melancholy derision and without taking sides, the film focuses on a singular reality. The result is a delicate questioning of the boundary between the domestic and the wild, the personification of animals and the precariousness of marginal lifestyles.

?

As point of departure French calendar holidays and traditions symbolised by a vegetal emblem, such as roses for Saint Valentine's Day. Ecologically absurd, the flower industry is also the terrain for an imbalanced North/South relationship, with the plants massively sold in cities of the North often sourced from the countryside of the South.
