Synopsis:
“Imagine that you were born somewhere else, ‘at the end of the world’. Imagine that you grew in an adopted family, 20,000 kilometers from your native land. Just imagine that the face of the woman who brought you into the world is completely unknown, just like those of your brothers and your sisters. Finally, imagine that one day you touched, for the first time of your life, the ground of your ancestors. Imagine that….†Maeva and Eteroa are two young people of 23 and 20 years old. Brother and sister by blood, they were born on the island from Rurutu in Polynesia, and were adopted in the first hours of life by a French couple. Thus, they grew up far from their native land. Today they question, wanting to know their origin and their culture, to discover the island which saw their birth, to grow and to fully explore life which at the moment does not satisfy them…. They decided to take this step, to leave for a tour of their native island, for an initiatory voyage which will carry out them much further they had not imagined it. [en français] « Imaginez que vous soyez nés quelque part, « au bout du monde ». Imaginez que vous ayez grandi dans une famille d’adoption, à 20 000 kilomètres de votre terre natale. Imaginez que le visage de la femme qui vous a mis au monde vous soit totalement inconnu, tout comme celui de vos frères et vos soeurs. Enfin imaginez qu’un jour vous fouliez, pour la première fois de votre vie, la terre de vos ancêtres. Imaginez cela.... » Maeva et Eteroa sont deux adolescents de 23 et 20 ans. Frère et soeur de sang, ils sont nés sur l’île de Rurutu en Polynésie et furent adoptés aux premières heures de la vie par un couple français. Ainsi, ils ont grandi loin de chez eux. Aujourd’hui ils s’interrogent, veulent connaître leur origine et leur culture, découvrir l’île qui les a vus naître, pour grandir et s’épanouir pleinement dans une vie qui pour l’instant ne les satisfait pas.... Ils ont décidé de franchir le pas, de partir à la découverte de leur île natale, pour un voyage initiatique qui les mènera bien plus loin qu’ils ne l’avaient imaginé.
