About the film

What it’s about

Alyssa, a rebellious 19-year-old, and Mehdi, a shy 23-year-old, feel stuck in their unpromising reality. They discover a contest in southern Tunisia that could let them leave for real. Despite obstacles, they set out on a road trip, their imagination both fuel and refuge.

What hooks you

Slim Baccar and Eya Bellagha play the two leads. Director Amel Guellaty also wrote the screenplay. The film was nominated for the Grand Prix in the World Cinema Dramatic category at Sundance in 2025.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys character-driven journeys where humour and hardship mix, and for those drawn to stories of youthful defiance and the search for a way out.
