"Grands Quelqu'Uns" is a documentary by Ingrid Pernet-Duparc, in collaboration with the association "Les Puits du Désert".
Synopsis:
She "fell from the sky" and he met her in the desert. Christel, the mountain woman, and Mohamed, the Tuareg, have been travelling together for 20 years. This is the story of this unlikely duo who, from the Aravis massif to the Aïr massif in Niger, have taken up an exemplary humanitarian challenge: to provide sustainable access to drinking water for over 100,000 people in the heart of the desert. Humour and complicity in the service of solidarity. For 15 years, I've been following their adventures, camera in hand, before the 2024 putsch turned the story of these "Great Somebody's" upside down.
