Opération Papyrus

From February 2017 to  December 2018, Geneva gave the opportunity to well integrated “illegals” who had been living in Geneva for a long time to regularize their situation, provided they could prove residence in the Canton for over 10 years. Their reward: official documentation and a new life, which instilled hope as much as it did fear and mistrust. Presented as its world premiere, this film gives a voice to the associations, unions, employers, political figures and people without legal status, as they recount this singular human adventure.
