Four months on a series combining cinema, photography, theater and puppetry to digitize the history, heritage and dialect of Sfax.

Story

One of the best experiences I have lived. For four months, a group of young people who believed in the project worked on the writing, the set and the filming of “Qaida maa Zbida”, a joint project of the One Two Show and Sfax El-Mezyena associations.

Each episode tackles a different topic through a simple comedy text rich in historical vocabulary. It is built on the dialogue between a married couple: grandmother Zbida, torn between her traditional experience and her wish to keep up with social media, and her husband Tijani, who holds on to his cultural heritage. The series is aimed mainly at children and young people, to help them discover the customs and traditions of Sfax.

Thank you to both associations, to my friend Yassine Masmoudi, who came up with the idea and led the project, and to all the talented participants.
