Once upon a time in Spain, there was a little bull and his name was Ferdinand . . . Unlike all the other little bulls - who run, jump, and butt their heads together in fights - Ferdinand would rather sit under his favourite cork tree and smell the flowers. So what will happen when Ferdinand is picked for the bull fights in Madrid? Beloved all over the world for its timeless message of peace, tolerance and the courage to be yourself, this truly classic story has never been out of print in the US since its release in 1936. Hitherto unpublished in the UK and now a major motion picture.
En transposant "La tempête" dans l'univers de son île natale, ancienne colonie britannique, Dev Virahsawmy propose une relecture de la pièce de Shakespeare. Il y convie aussi d'autres personnages, transfuges du Roi Lear, d'Hamlet, ou d'Otello. Il tranforme Caliban, le monstre, en beau métis qui finira par épouser la fille de Prospero avant de devenir roi. "Toufann" explore le lien entre l'île et la reste du monde, les relations entre les humains. Quitter son île devient une renaissance indispensable pour aller vers l'autre. "
