The unique and complex dynamics of Mardi Gras | FULL DOCUMENTARY

The most famous New Orleans carnival is the French-influenced carnival organized not by the public authorities, but by the “Krewes.” It starts with the Krewe du Vieux, in its own territory of the French Quarter, a reminder of the colonial past.
Through a festive and sensitive journey, this video explores the diversity of the Mardi Gras carnival of New Orleans, in its richness but also in its contradictions and paradoxes. The tensions generated by its heterogeneity make it a kaleidoscope in the image of the United States. Here, the carnival has a necessary social dimension for the locals as well as for the tourists.
