Fatima, seventeen, leaves her family and neighborhood in Marseille to live freely and explore her sexuality which soon forces her to confront her faith and traditions. Hafsia Herzi returns to the screen with another powerful portrait of womanhood after Bonne Mère. Adapted from Fatima Daas’s novel, the film shines with authenticity and sensitivity, anchored by Nadia Melliti’s luminous performance who won the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress.
