Arabian Nights: Volume 2, The Desolate One (2015)
Overview
In which Scheherazade tells of how desolation invaded men : “It hath reached me, O auspicious King, that a Judge will cry instead of giving out her sentence.

A wounded cow will reminisce about a thousand-year-old olive tree while saying what she must say, which will sound none less than sad !
