What do Black French people have in common? Not much, apart from their skin color and the racism they face. For the first time, the documentary *Noirs en France* gives a voice to Black French people of all ages and backgrounds, whether known or unknown to the general public. Narrated by writer Alain Mabanckou, this documentary traces their stories, marked by prejudice and stereotypes, yet also filled with hope and pride. These Black people in France are shaping a history in constant transformation.
