Mediapart shines a light on Atlantic Bar

We are proud to share that Mediapart has dedicated an article to Atlantic Bar, offering a deep dive into the heart of Fanny Molins' documentary.

Described as a film about resilience and collective strength, Mediapart highlights the contrasting worlds of Nathalie and Jean-Jacques, who fight to save the bar they’ve poured their lives into, and the urban transformation symbolized by Arles’ luxurious Luma Tower. The article praises the film’s ability to balance raw, heartfelt storytelling with stunning visuals, avoiding “the trap of miserabilism.”

Mediapart captures the essence of the bar as “the last space of socialization still open to all,” and lauds the documentary’s focus on “life’s small joys and great sorrows.” We’re thrilled to see such thoughtful recognition of this project, which means so much to us and to those who inspired it.
