Summary :
With her video, The Battle of Naked Men, Veronique Sapin moves her work on human vulnerability from a philosophical field toward a more political dimension.
This is not a battle : men are lined up and a child is sleeping.
There are no naked men : men are in uniform and the sleeping child is wearing a torn T-shirt.
However, social violence is extremly strong in the images. What do these men at attention in a street where a dirtychild in rags and tatters is sleeping on the ground, at their feet ?
The battle is announced. It is inevitable
