***Diego l'interdite*** is a [Mauritian](/source/Mauritius) 2002 documentary film directed by [David Constantin](/source/David_Constantin).

## Synopsis

This documentary tells of how the [Chagossians](/source/Chagossians) were torn from their islands in the northern [Indian Ocean](/source/Indian_Ocean). In 1965, the Colonial British authorities declared the isle separate from Mauritius in exchange of its independence. Then, the United States rented [Diego Garcia](/source/Diego_Garcia), the largest of the isles, to install a military base and the population was sent to Mauritius. The Chagossians have spent the past 36 years living in extreme poverty in Mauritius, dreaming of one day going home.
