Description

A story inspired by the life of his ancestor, inventor of a new musical instrument in the Beirut of the 1960s. A crazy attempt to bring together the musical traditions of the East and the West, this piano with an unknown destiny was only made in one copy, just before the civil war broke out in Lebanon.

An amusing - and touching - metaphor of the meeting of two cultures, of two worlds, which coexist in Zeina and in her work.
