Comme Ali

It is a story of fire, this determination of the oppressed to see it all ravaged in its path.

In this tale – mixing Muslim culture and heroic fantasy – Ali must face forty policemen and pass so many tests. But nothing seems to divert him from his quest: that the fire of the police station at the bottom of his house burns to the end...

First play of the essayist and activist Fatima Ouassak, Comme Ali takes up the themes she develops on the de-childization of Arab boys, their emancipatory horizons, part of a decolonial and restorative literature.
