SOLAR NOON (2022)

In North Africa, between the end of the Atlas Mountains and the Saharan plateau, a dry lake separates the Mashreq (east) from the Maghreb (west). Against all expectations, it is a landscape that is constantly changing. To its physical mutability, the director adds further layers by inserting fragments of three stories from Herodotus "Histories", traditional narratives and his own text, presenting them to viewers in the form of "tableaux vivants" laden with symbols and rituals.
