A freshly formed and still fragile couple arrives in France,When Emmanuel Macron announced the containment by the Corona virus, the whole family tries to support each other.
As the rest of the family falls into psychosis, the budding love of two young people is a veritable burst of sunshine and a mirage of recklessness.
Ewa i Marvell met just after CHRISTMAS in the most famous caraoke club in Krakow. 1 week before, Ewa who is a professional tattoo artist in Tunisia has decided to leave this country... When she entered the bar she was already drunk and her fur cap didn't fit her brown hair... Marvell was the king of the scene. Then he came and sat down with us, and seeing the looks on their faces, I understood that I had lost Ewa forever. They'd just fallen in love at first sight... Over the next month, she arrived with him in France, plans and dreams full of heads.

Since their migration from Poland to Paris before 2005, everything has been going from bad to worse for Kasia and Maciek, a couple in their fifties.living well below the poverty line in the suburb of 93 in Ile-De-France.She devoted herself to her children and never found another job apart from housework.He, a very gifted carpenter, can not take advantage of it, suffering from chronic migraines and bone disease, which results in severe back pain.
By continuing to work in this house, it became clear to me how vulnerable the family is and how few resources they have. Because of the confinement each person has lost their job.
I wanted people to see the members of this family in the pictures as people who are deeply affected and depressed, and not as objects of pity or contempt. I want to publish it, because through the joyful moments of lovers you can see a huge amount of despair, anger and pain. I photographed what they do with their lives and I tried to do it in a way that did not dramatize or romanticize what was happening.
