"...When I composed Ounadikom at the age of nineteen , I then leaped over my age , my feelings and my life ; my songs and the war were ahead of me . And here I am - since the occupation took place - enduring a fatal leisure that pushes me to genuinely explore love and man . I do not wish to be a minute object in a consumary system , or a bad witness of reality ... " Ahmad Kaabour
