Divertimento

At 17, Zahia Ziouani dreams of becoming a conductor. Her twin sister, Fettouma, is a professional cellist. Lulled by classical symphonic music since their childhood, they wish in turn to make it accessible to all and in all territories. So how can one accomplish such ambitious dreams in 1995 as a woman, of Algerian origin and from Seine-Saint-Denis? With determination, passion, courage and especially the incredible project of creating their own orchestra: Divertimento.
