It’s no secret: Literature, cinema, drama, music and art hold a special place in the French psyche. The cultural sector indirectly employs around 1.3 million people, generating €47 billion for the economy – that’s seven times more than the French car industry! But what does the future of culture look like after successive months of closed theatres, cinemas and galleries? And just how equal is access to that culture across different socioeconomic and cultural groups? Our journey this week takes us to Marseille. The city's northern neighbourhoods are notoriously neglected, but they’re also a vibrant melting pot of a wide range of cultural influences.
