La Cour des Contes festival: “The Old Man who read romance novels” (gratuit)
Teen/adult show - Free storytelling aperitif, without registration
Antonio José Bolivar knows the depths of the Amazon rainforest and its inhabitants, the noble people of the Shuars.
When the villagers of El Idilio wrongly accuse them of the murder of a white hunter, the old man leaves his romance novels, the only escape from the barbarity of men, to hunt the real culprit, a majestic panther...
Drawing on his experience in French Guiana with the Teko and Wayãpi native Americans, Lénaïc Eberlin guides you in the footsteps of Antonio José Bolivar in the heart of this sacred forest, victim of human barbarity and more threatened than ever.
Based on the novel by Luis Sepúlveda
