Roissy, 2021. Two young Afghans, Abdul Haq and Farhad, have just been evacuated. While they wait, an elderly zookeeper from Kabul tells them about Marjan, the last lion in Afghanistan.
Through the story of this majestic animal, witness to wars and silences, an entire country resurfaces: its wounds, its beauty, its hopes.
Blending tale, memory, and reality, this play modestly weaves a profoundly human story, where exiles intersect and voices echo one another. A moving and courageous story, it helps us better understand those who come from far away and what they have gone through.
Followed by an awareness-raising meeting on racism and discrimination with LICRA, with the support of DILCRAH.
