The triptych video installation Une Odyssée works to the rhythm of the music of Laurent Durupt (piano, percussion), the poem written and read by Touda Bouanani, and the performance of the guest artists.
Ali Essafi visited Bouanani three years before the latter’s death. The filmmaker, poet and novelist who also made drawings was leading a reclusive life in a remote village with his wife Naïma and many cats, living in the midst of huge piles of books and manuscripts.
