Ouatann

Ouatann means home, village, country and homeland at once. On a forgotten coastal road, a house facing the sea takes in a woman and two men whom nothing destined to meet, and within two days their lives tip over. Over the country hangs the silence that comes before storms or revolutions. Around them, schemes large and small play out in a Tunisia at the end of a reign, corrupt to the core and splintered into pieces that no longer speak the same language, its middle class lucid but compromised, worn down into cowardice and gloom.
