Soldiers of the French colonial army, obliged to live in Bordeaux for six months of the year in order to receive their war pensions, these veterans shared a small part of their lives with us. From these rare moments arose the shared desire to leave a record of their journey and their presence in Bordeaux, a book illustrated by their scrawled silhouettes.
