Bien que peu connu en France, Ibn Battuta est un des explorateurs majeurs de l'Histoire. Célèbre aventurier marocain du 14ème siècle, il entreprend, en 1325, une expédition épique à La Mecque, centre historique et culturel de l'Islam. Il rentre 29 ans plus tard, après avoir traversé le monde, de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, l'Espagne et l'Inde à la Chine et les Maldives, parcourant plus de 120 000 kilomètres, soit trois fois la distance parcourue plus tard par Marco Polo ! Le Grand voyage d'Ibn Battuta retrace le premier pèlerinage de l'explorateur entre 1325 et 1326 de Tanger à la Mecque et dresse un riche portrait de la civilisation Islamique du 14ème siècle. Sur 1000 m2 d'écran hémisphérique, la beauté des paysages, le sens et le caractère épique de cette expédition sont démultipliés.

During the 12th and 15th centuries, in Muslim Spain, many science books were written. When Muslims left Spain, many took their manuscripts with them. Today, one can find them spread in particular libraries, all along the caravan route through Morocco, Mauritania and Mali. From Toledo to Timbuktu, this documentary follows their traces. Its protagonist, Ismael Diadié Haidara, owner of the Andalus Library of Timbuktu, has spent years trying to retrieve his family's manuscripts and with them, his own Al Andalus past.
