"Champollion who remembers the forests of Quercy and the golden ordeal of noble causes ...."
G. Mace in Le Dernier des Egyptiens (The Last Egyptian),
Editions Gallimard 1998

"Aubrac-Rushes is a video of re-filmed images, which we watch as if flicking through a sketchbook of drawings executed in pencil, charcoal, graphite ...
These "sketches" were snatched from real life during a stay in Aubrac with Martine Rousset and Mahine Rouhi in January 2007.
Some fragments of these promenades are also fossilized in silver photographic emulsion ...
"Erratic and restless - we stumble into the shots - which search for their lost path - the broken trajectory of a nowhere landscape - the brief and obstinate rhythm of a searching gaze - a real quest: where to go from here?

M. Rousset

En repérages, j'ai tourné ce petit film maladroit avec une caméra super 8 que m'avait prêté Martine Rousset... La caméra était défectueuse et moi pas très bien ce jour là et cela se vois à l'image...

Olivier Fouchard.

Ce film à été tourné en super8 développé à la main des conditions très artisanales.
