In partnership with the International Academy of Ceramics, the Musée Ariana presents the documentary “Heureux qui comme Tounès.” Directed by Delphine Champy, the film delves into the lives of potters in the Egyptian village of Tounès, highlighting the influence of two Swiss individuals, Evelyne Porret and Michel Pastore, on the village’s development. This documentary pays tribute to four generations of potters, focusing on the empowerment of the women in Tounès who have gained independence. After the screening, there will be a discussion with the director and a reception.
