In the garden of a villa in front of the Mediterranean sea, a man works on the Arabic translation of Oscar Wilde’s trial.

Under the light of a summer evening and throughout the subsequent nights, the various protagonists of the trial appear to him. He interprets them one after the other and revives the aesthetic and political issues of this battle. This verbal joust thus appears as the English dandy's final work, intense and valuable.

  • The screening will take place in the presence of the director Christian Merlhiot and the actor Nasri Sayegh.
