The recent Arab revolutions not only changed the political situation in their respective countries, but also released an incredible amount of artistic and musical energy. On a never-ending late summer evening, animation, dance and musicians from Tunisia, Palestine, Syria, Egypt, Iraq and Lebanon sound the beat of the revolution! Right before the concert, at 8pm, we will screen a short animation ‘Abou Eskandar’ with live music! All of a sudden ‘Raks’ will occupy the concert!
