Watch on 123Movies. Burning cars tells a paradox. New Caledonia is a dazzling mermaid with its blue-lagoon charms. But while crisscrossing this French Pacific island, I was struck by the underlying tension contained in this exotic paradise. Historical wounds, links of tortuous love with France, island microcosm and thorny juxaposition of societies with opposite values… The film explores a place, a universe.
