A series of portraits taken this year for Amnesty International's Swiss magazine. Each person photographed is committed to human rights. A commitment that comes at a cost: exile, threats, torture, deportation... The framing is direct and uncluttered. The reader thus faces the subject's gaze. A face-to-face confrontation that reveals the intense and often violent experiences of these people.
