The camera strolls "between tents and trailers, among all these humble people, as simple as their preoccupations. Old and young who all have dreamt, at some point in their lives, of leaving for some unreachable place with palm-trees. They were all born in Nord-Pas-de-Calais and have been coming to Bray-Dunes since they were little. People here play bowls, bet on horses or talk about work. Unemployment is lurking. Misery is there. And nostalgia too ". (G DUPUY, "L' Express" N° 2452)
