Show & CultureShow & CultureA moving musical and theatrical fresco paying tribute to the martyr monks of Tibhirine.The Passion According to Tibhirine is a play directed by Pascal Joumier. The massacre of the Tibhirine monks in 1996 has remained a sensitive subject for many. Here, Pascal Joumier pays tribute to them by drawing on their powerful writings and the letters they left behind, which bear witness to an unwavering commitment to their faith and to humanity. We walk alongside them, at the heart of a context that grows darker, sharing their convictions, their faithfulness, their humanity and, ultimately, their sacrifice. Magnified by the iridescent presence and sublime voice of soprano Valéria Florencio, the journey of these religious men leads the audience back to the foundations of peace, selflessness and love.
