Regard intense

            Varanasi (Inde) - Ce vieil homme vient régulièrement se faire soigner auprès de l’équipe médicale d’Action Bénarès qui intervient plusieurs fois par semaine dans le bidonville de La Kharbuza. Il a un vilaine blessure au genou. Pendant le mois durant lequel j’ai suivi les soignants dans leur mission sanitaire, je le voyais régulièrement. Je ne l’ai jamais vu parler à personne. Il se laissait photographier sans problème et sans rien dire. Je m’étais pris d’affection pour cet homme apparemment solitaire. Intrigué par son mutisme, à la fin du reportage, j’ai appris que l’homme était muet. 

Intense look

Varanasi (India) - This old man regularly comes for treatment from the Action Bénarès medical team, which operates several times a week in the slum of La Kharbuza. He has a bad knee injury. During the month I followed the caregiver in their medical mission, I saw him regularly. I've never seen him talk to anyone. He let himself be photographed without problem and without saying anything. I had developed an affection for this apparently lonely man. Intrigued by his silence, at the end of the report, I learned that the man was mute.
