Date de publication : 28/11/2024

Malgré les jours et les années qui passent, Dawit, emprisonné dans un conteneur depuis plus de vingt ans, garde toujours espoir… Il survit en pensant aux siens, à sa mère, à sa femme Sofia, à leur rencontre lorsqu’ils étaient jeunes, à leurs trois enfants. Il se rebelle aussi, contre le destin terrible de son pays, un pays qu’il aime, mais qui le condamne… Né en 1964, l’écrivain et journaliste érythréen naturalisé suédois, Dawit Isaak, a été arrêté en Érythrée en 2001, où règne l’une des pires dictatures de notre époque, dans l’indifférence presque totale du monde entier. À ce jour, les différentes demandes internationales pour le faire libérer ont toutes échoué et on ignore s’il est encore en vie. Cette pièce témoigne de l’espoir immuable auquel aspire tout être humain privé de liberté.
