Zatrap

0.0(0)198150m0

The film Zatrap, shot in Black & White, in 16 MM, and in Creole/French, pinpoints the problems of a departmentalized Martinique, which no longer produces anything and depends on containers to feed its population. A Martinique that was preparing to "give" its daughters and sons to the mother country, metropolitan France, to work for the PTT (post office), the RATP (metro) and the AP (hospitals). At the time, Césaire called this transfer “genocide by substitution”, because at the same time as these young people were going into exile, other inhabitants from France were settling in Martinique.
