Abstract

One day, Hassan fell asleep at the foot of a tomb. For almost forty years, he has remained there and has become the guardian of the Djellaz cemetery in Tunis. GARDIEN DES MONDES (GUARDIAN OF THE WORLDS), watches over the dignity of the inhabitants of this cemetery who no longer have a voice. In search of love and freedom, this man at the crossroads of two worlds opens his thoughts, his hopes, his doubts and his universe to the director Leïla Chaïbi. This intimate portrait is an invitation to reflect on the place of the afterlife and the living in this world.
