Out of Chechnya, een anecdote van fotojournalist Patrick Chauvel
On one of my trips to Chechnya, I stayed for two weeks in the same house as this beautiful American woman photographer. Did you see the film Out of Africa, when Robert Redford washes Meryl Streep's hair in the bush, and just after that they have dinner under the stars and she puts her hand on his shoulder, strokes his head, and they make love?
Well, this photographer had long red hair, and she had gotten so much stuff in it that I said: "Do you want me to wash your hair?" She was a bit surprised by my offer, but she said okay; I think she was amused. So I took this water jug and washed her hair. Then we had dinner, which meant we had bits of cheese and crackers. And then, well... I don't think she saw the film. She probably still wonders why I washed her hair. I suppose I should send her the dvd.
