Limassol

The history of the Taksim cinema, later renamed Apollon, until its destruction by fire in May 2024, is brought to life through the personal testimonies of past and present residents of the neighborhood. The event activates the very space of the cinema through a sound documentary, cooking, and music. In addition, on the morning of the same day, the guided sound walk “Stories from Limassol’s mahalla” will take place, featuring narratives about the area’s social life before 1974.

Walid Ben Selim gives voice to great Sufi poets, seeking primal vibration through an epic, meditative breath. With harpist Marie-Marguerite Cano, he creates a space of musical spirituality, where Arabic spoken word meets the harp’s symbolic language. A poetic territory imbued with love and triumphant joy.

Discover 2 on-board experiences: The Mediterranean Sound Journey created by Ircam x Centre Pompidou, and a virtual reality immersion by Ubisoft, inviting you to explore lost archaeological sites. Sailing by Laure Prouvost.

Opening to the general public on Saturday, October 25 from 3:30pm.
