The three Algerian musicians of the group INDEX are currently experiencing a geographical separation. They ward off the distance by still making music together and even plan to go back on stage. With them, I look back at the birth of the group during the 90s in the midst of terrorism. An attempt to tell the story of one of the darkest periods of Algeria, one of the most complex, but where the impulse for life was at its peak, a period when I was still only a child. With Index, I wonder about this episode in Algerian history, where memory is absent from the national story.
