Oriental Baths : from magic to oblivion…

If in Europe going to Turkish baths is considered an exotic practice, it represents, for a majority of Muslims, more than just a place to unwind. Its cleansing, social and religious virtues have attracted many followers. For all that, it is more and more in decline in the medinas, poorly resisting the modern world and its chain of changes. Neglected, it seems like a monument inherited from the elders, devoid of any role to play. And with it, a whole way of life is threatened… Pascal Meunier has brought back from his many trips to Syria, Turkey, Yemen, Egypt, Lebanon, Iran, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Emirates, a unique portrayal of these magical places.
