Amor Zouiten

A masterpiece of Tunisian theatre and arguably its most iconic production to date, Marshal Ammar has been performed over 300 times across Tunisia and remains deeply ingrained in popular culture, especially through its television broadcasts. The play tells the story of a wealthy yet uncultured man, Marshal Ammar, who desperately tries to bridge the gap between his social standing and the aristocracy. His misguided attempts to appear refined lead to a series of foolish decisions, resulting in comical and often farcical situations.

An archaeologist working on a dig in North Africa is forced to violently defend himself against a burglar one night. He becomes increasingly drawn into a vortex of mysterious events. Based on the novel "The Tremor of Forgery" by Patricia Highsmith.
