Abstract
This article revisits the portrayal of Maghrebi diaspora in Corsica. It evaluates how a new generation of Corsican writers and filmmakers (focusing on Jérôme Ferrari and Thierry de Peretti) gives voice to Maghrebi characters resulting from a postcolonial paradox. Only fragmentation, opacity, limited frame, and heteroglossia can express the question of alterity in Corsica. Another image of Corsica is revealed, anchored in a geopoetic space allowing new narrations and mise-en-scenes. Polyphony offers a utopian model to combine voices in a complexity of ways. This metaphor is used to describe a necessary dialogue between past and present, visible and invisible realities
