The three Algerian musicians of INDEX are now geographically separated. But they have managed to bridge the distance by continuing to make music together and are even planning to return to the stage. With them, I revisit the birth of the group in the 90s, in the midst of terrorism. An attempt to retrace the history of one of Algeria's darkest and most complex periods, when the impulse to live was at its height, a period when I was still a child. With Index, I ask myself about this episode in Algerian history, when memory is absent from the national narrative.
