Terror Cotta Tramontane
Zavvi - the home of pop culturetramontane, literally ‘one who lives on the other side of the mountain’, tells the story of rabih, a blind musician searching for his true identity after discovering his identification card is a forgery.
his search leads him to the far fringes of rural lebanon, where he is confronted with varying recollections of the past from significant figures in his life.
rabih represents a generation blinded by the civil war period who are struggling to repair the divisions that still exist in a post-conflict lebanon.
an understated and lyrical debut from vatche boulghourjian brought alive by an outstanding natural debut from real-life blind musician barakat jabbour, whose performance makes for a truly immersive and affecting experience.
