REINES (QUEENS)
Filmforum Ludwig Ticketshop
Zineb, a professional con artist and thief, escapes from prison and takes her 11-year-old daughter, Ines, with her. They cross paths with Asma, a young female mechanic caught up in her daily life. By day she dreams of the outside world and by night of a life free of her forced marriage. A long run begins. From Casablanca to the Atlas Mountains to the South of Morocco and the shores of the Atlantic, QUEENS is a female road movie mixed with fantasy elements. In this first feature film, director Yasmine Benkiran reinvents Moroccan imagery by proposing alternative representations of women.
