Thousand Nights and a Night

With the dawn, a strident cry, each morning. A young woman is decapitated on the order of the King, right after the only night she has spent with him. Shahrzad refuses this infernal cycle and decides to act. She asks her father, the Grand Vizir to send her in the royal harem to understand the King and to bring him back to the life.

Shahrzad makes him accept the ambivalence of the existence and reconciles him with love by telling him fantastic stories from far countries and set in the future: Today's Gabon, Holland, France and Iran.
