Mohamed Majd

A Moroccan immigrant in France asks his adolescent son to drive him across seven countries as he undertakes the Hajj to Mecca. The father's peaceful, solemn pilgrimage is an incomprehensible waste of time for his son. Along the way though, as the pair's stark differences and attitudes towards life become apparent, they come to understand one another.

In a remote Maghreb village where the men sit around and the women do all the work, a wife fights for an end to inequality and declares a sex strike.
