The Blue Caftan

Charmingly old-fashioned in its storytelling style, yet brave enough to deal with some contentious & morally tricky issues - director Maryam Touzani presents us with a classic-feeling film in The Blue Caftan; a work rich in visual texture, & nuanced performances. Mina & Halim proudly run one of the very finest Caftan stores in old Morocco. As they struggle to keep up with the demands of their adoring customers, they enlist the vibrant young Youssef onboard to help out. But soon Mina cannot help but notice the intoxicating effect that Youssef’s presence has on her beloved Halim. Intoxicating, elegant cinema.
