Synopsis:
After 10 years, Taoufik Jebali revisits his play “The Madman” by Gibran Khalil Gibran, an adaptation responding to a current need: that of a voice calling us to contemplate our humanity oppressed by the voices of authoritarianism, exclusion, and tyranny.
A prophetic voice, a spiritual voice,
The voice of a Madman,
The voice of Gibran.
