A mythical interpretation of the second phase of religiously sanctioned military expeditions by Western Christianity toward Jerusalem and the Holy Land. This musical film transforms the script which is inspired by Amin Maalouf’s writings into lyrics sung by choirs of both children and adults using Bahraini pearl fishing musical traditions.
All SAF events are free and open to the public.
