Rafik, an ordinary man, seemed to have a settled life, he was married and the father of a boy. After an unexplained outburst of madness, he finds himself locked up in prison. Four years later, on his release from prison, he kidnaps his child, Yassine, and takes him to the mountains. He wants to open his eyes to another world. By mixing the genres of fantasy and psychological thriller, OURA EL JEBEL questions social order and rationality. In his third feature film, Tunisian filmmaker Mohamed Ben Attia praises transgression in the face of a conformist society.
