A woman tells an involving fairy tale that crosses the magic atmosphere of Nordic mythology with that of the Mediterranean. She succeeds in bringing the history of the valleys and the people that colonized them to life in the eyes of her North African guests. It is a story dense with legends, rites, traditions, exchanges with other peoples, and...surprises!
