Nothing is written in Stambeli. Therefore, the transmission of knowledge is fundamental to the survival of the rite. In the sanctuary of Sidi Ali Lasmar in the Medina of Tunis, the mystical cult survives. However, its future is uncertain. Between everyday scenes, music and trance ceremonies, the second episode features Riadh Ezzawech's fight for the survival of this heritage. How was he saved by the priestesses of Stambeli? What does it mean to be Arîfa in modern society? What place is left for the sacred and for other spiritualities in contemporary Tunisia?
