"Black Book - The victims of economic crisis" (by Jean-Marc Caimi)

The economic crisis forced an icreasingly amount of people to become homeless, transforming them from normal persons to social outcast. The phenomenon is dramatically boosting and most of the people photographed (and interviews tape recorded) are "new" homeless, struck by the crisis and unable to recover. Instead of contextualized photographs, a black background was used, with people floating in the dark, because that is what society is doing. Building a "non-lieux" for people who, for many personal reasons, lost the grip to its economic pace.

Hundred thousands of ex-rebel fighters are struggling for a new life after the revolution. The majority lost their job, in companies linked to the regime of Gaddafi. Many are still griefing their parents lost during the war. Some are now working for the government that is using ex-revolutionary as police and armed forces, while unable to form a real security service or army. Ex soldiers are still organized in "captibas", independent armed brigades often acting autonomously.
