Overview

In a neighbourhood in Bhar Lazrak, Tunis, residents live under the imminent threat of the state, which plans to demolish the area. Built spontaneously during the 2011 revolution by a group of people without state authorisation, the neighbourhood now faces an uncertain fate. One evening, mysterious lights appear in the neighbourhood, breaking the silence of the sleepers.
