From photography to web-documentaries

Nowhere Safe is Samuel Bollendorff's latest web-documentary. It tells, in 16 portraits, the stories of 3.6m men and women in France who are living in precarious conditions due to poor housing [watch the web-documentary here].

The Frenchman has made his name producing web documentaries that often mash up still images with audio, video and text, and in 2008 one of his multimedia pieces was the first to feature on Le Monde’s website. It had a profound effect on his peers but, he says, it wasn’t new for him. “I’ve always tried to integrate text into my images. My parents are psychoanalysts so the act of speaking is important. My job is to transmit words and ideas.”
