David Gheron Tretiakoff (b. 1970) is a French filmmaker and visual artist who often focuses on contemporary political and social developments in the Middle East. As a researcher he does not reveal any journalistic truths, but rather evokes feelings of aversion. He not only exposes the psychological consequences of national oppression and international terrorism, but also reveals the almost impossible habituation that accompanies it. To achieve this, Tretiakoff confronts the viewer with a poignant discomfort.
