This is the story of a road known as Route GP1. It runs along the coast from Tunis to the Libyan border, its asphalt strip following the ancient Roman roads toward Carthage, flanked by sea and olive trees. But the GP1 is a thing of the past – the highway has arrived. My photos record the lives and dreams that have faded with it, the last witnesses who, drained by the difficult new circumstances, are preparing to leave for the city, where there is probably no room for them nor any future for their children.
