In Mafrouza, two events shape the early winter. With tensions, joy, and festivities, a baby boy is born. At the same time, a young woman is getting engaged. Faced with a collective agitation shaking the neighborhood’s families, everyone searches for their place in the world surrounding them.
This fourth film in the Mafrouza cycle is the most structurally self-contained and formally adventurous. Hassan moves to the fringes of the story, his songs serving as a kind of chorus, as the women of the town take the spotlight, the birth of a baby boy inciting an acute inquiry into gender roles.
