In November 2011, I travelled in the area of Sendai, in the North of Tokyo, devastated by the tsunami of 12 March 2011, to see and realize the situation of chaos in a country as industrialized as Japan. I travelled through the ravaged lands and landscapes and met the survivors and victims who had the chance, for those who had it, to get a temporary home. These plastic homes are organized as a small village laying on unbuilt grounds. People « living » there have lost everything, from the necessary to the smallest souvenir. Traces of entire lives have disappeared and gone for ever. Photographying with the minimum effects, I caught some bits of these tragic destinies and tried to show faces when nothing is left but the struggle and will to live again.
