In the Sahara desert, an old Tuareg man comes back to the camp where he grew up for a party. He remembers the joys and the torments of the nomadic life he lived with a friend who has since deceased: memories from their naive childhood in the sand dunes, the adventures they lived during their teenage years, the fights and the dramas of their adult lives… Their friendship tells us the story of hearty people living in lands of loneliness.

“There was a time
I lived fulfilled.
Life taught me that
It can often change.

The one you find in solitude
Is prisoner of egotistical desires.
I have a friend I can trust
Who quenches the thirst
That burns in my heart.

I walk in his footsteps
Pursuing memories built
On a dune that’s always moving.

No sleepwalking, don’t keep me apart
I’m through sleepwalking, god be in my heart
No more sleepwalking, been asleep too long
No more sleepwalking, keep me with you go”

PERCHÉ È COSÌ TRISTE?
Perché racconta i ricordi di un tuareg che torna nel campo dove è cresciuto e ripercorre la difficile vita nomade in compagnia di un amico ormai deceduto

PERCHÉ TI RENDE FELICE?
Perché è una straordinaria contaminazione di suoni, generi e modi di raccontare la realtà che ci circonda
