Open-air screening of the documentary film "Marcher sur l'eau" (2021) directed by Aïssa Maïga. Walking on Water was filmed in northern Niger between 2018 and 2020 and tells the story of the village of Tatiste, a victim of global warming, which is fighting for access to water by building a borehole. Every day, fourteen-year-old Houlaye, like other young girls, walks for miles to fetch the water that is essential to life in the village. Among other things, this daily task prevents them from attending school regularly. The lack of water also forces adults to leave their families every year to seek the resources they need to survive across the border. Yet this region has an underground aquifer lake covering several thousand square kilometres. Under the impetus of the inhabitants and through the action of the NGO Amman Imman, a borehole would bring the much-coveted water to the centre of the village and offer everyone a better life.
This event is part of the 2025 "A l'eau ! Culture flows from the source in the Tarn".
