Seven plus Seven

Sab’a wu Sab’a, Seven and Seven days needed for the moon to complete half its journey in the sky. One night the moon breaks into pieces and disappears, leaving the village in despair. Since that night, no stories could be told.

And so hakawati, shadows, lights, mirrors, water and reflections fly unhinged in an attempt to put together the scattered pieces of the moon.

Together, we shall embark on this journey to the village pond, to Philomena's shop and to Bou Sleiman's orchard where different protagonists will unite in an attempt to bring back the moon in seven and seven new nights, hoping to once again be able to tell stories.
