Pacific Club
2023 · Movie · 16 min · ★ 6.0
In 1979, the Pacific Club was opened in a basement in La Défense, the business district of Paris. It was the first nightclub for Arabs from the suburbs—a parallel world of dance, sweat, young loves, and one-night utopias. Azedine, seventeen years old at the time, tells us the forgotten story of this club and of a generation who dreamed of integrating into French society but who soon came face-to-face with racism, the AIDS epidemic, and heroin.
