How To Get Over Being A Heavy Sleeper

Harkis ... A remarkable feature

... in a village of 300 inhabitants deep in the Alpes de Haute-Provence may seem incongruous. And yet, Nail (04) took up the challenge in as clear and pedagogical elegant. The project has taken shape around the village's history [the reception, forced departure of several families of harkis in 1962] and a team combining the town, a historian and expert on the conservative. The result is a permanent exhibition entitled "They're coming tomorrow ..." a properly stunning quality that manages to evoke that period susceptible oh so sober and appeased.

If it does not illuminate all, the exhibition gives keys that allow entry into the event as historic, while allowing a dissertation as families return regularly visiting for this purpose. And if I speak of this House of History and Memory of Nail (MHEMO) is not only to salute the outstanding work that has been done but also because the archives will play their role: kakemonos mix indeed narratives, historical photographs and reproductions of documents emblematic enlarged. The dialogue between the few personal items and documents exposed me and seemed particularly fruitful, while creating the atmosphere This special exhibition.

You understand if you pass by this summer, feel free to visit! The MHEMO has no website but by calling the Town Hall you'll have all the practical information.
