Rouhanyet Mystic Fest : « Is this what you call peace and love? »

Rouhanyet Mystic Fest is celebrating Season of Peace, its third edition which takes place from September 5-9 in Tunis’ postcardesque Sidi Bou Saïd. Organized by actor Hichem Rostom and wife Sana Ezzine, the event claims to be a « spiritual gathering based on mystic arts, sufism, sacred musics and all expressions of spirituality », offering festival-goers a smattering of yoga sessions, crystal healing and nightly musical concerts with the likes of Yuma and Labess. But amidst festival slogans of « peace, love, tolerance and fraternity », several artists from the previous edition are calling, quite simply, to be paid for their work.

« Woh ! » d’Ismahane Lahmar : la comédie aux soldes d’hiver

Sans être exempt d’intentions critiques, « Woh ! » d’Ismahane Lahmar peine à cuisiner un pétard intelligemment dévastateur. Entre mépris de classe, rivalités d’immatures et faux tabous, la jeune réalisatrice étale les clichés comme des os à ronger. Les réparties salaces n’y changeront rien, car sous ses airs de comédie dégonflant la baudruche familiale, ce film cache mal la platitude de son traitement.
