Before the dust had settled, the media proclaimed the start of the revolutionary Arab Spring as the region’s stability vanished and violence exploded.
Three actors take us back to the beginning, to Tunisia, and ask questions about political change, society and the future. Torn between a desire to witness change and a desire to escape the chaos, fragments of the moment are documented, a time of agner, dignity and dull helplessness.
Produced in Tunisia and Italy, the piece continues to be shown through theatre and Fringe festivals around Europe. Presented in Arabic, French & Italian with subtitles.
