For the disappearance of torture, we have to fight against ignorance at all levels. The respect for the freedom of everyone must be learned. It’s a whole mindset that needs to change.

Torture is the big problem of Tunisia today. All generations and all political currents have been affected by cruel and inhuman treatments.

The images are a testament to their realities and their disillusionment as if the possibility of burning the border remains uncertain, many eventually burn their past identity and often their lives.
