Le Dernier Cèdre du Liban

By Aïda Asgharzadeh

Duration: 1h20

Eva, very intelligent but above all very angry, is a young resident at the Mont de Marsan Closed Education Centre for minors.

Abandoned at birth, she knows nothing of her parents.

However, that day, summoned to the notary, she receives her inheritance: dozens of micro-cassettes and a dictaphone – her mother's voice on hours and hours of recordings. The Lebanese War, Arafat's speech at the UN, the fall of the Berlin Wall…

Anna Duval was a war reporter. Eva then delves into a whole decade of journalism to discover her own Great Story. "Tahar – Horsh Arz el-Rab. « the forest of the Cedars of God  ».

It's a somewhat sacred place for us. In the heart of this forest, among the other centuries-old cedars, there is a tree blackened by fire.

It's the only one. They say it was struck by lightning, just like that, all of a sudden.

One of the oldest in the forest. It was over 3000 years old, apparently.

A few days before you arrived, I went for a walk in Bcharreì.

Up to that tree. I climbed the mountain until I reached that ebony wood.

And there, at my feet, in the hollow of its trunk, I found its fruit, intact."
