Description
Summary:Dheepan questions a contemporary trope, that of a migrant from a state torn apart by an internal war that raged from July 1983 to May 2009 between the army of Sri-Lanka and the separatist Tamil Tigers struggling for the liberation of Tamil Eelam. The migrant hero is placed in another hostile environment, that of the inner suburbs of Paris where other problems confront him. Three phases of diaspora are described: displacement in order to survive, replacement in a urban liminal area, and finally location in an idyllic territory.
