Hedi's mother arranges his marriage, his boss sends him on a work trip and his older brother lectures him on how to behave. But when Hedi meets a woman while away on business, he falls in love as the wedding preparations continue back home.

Seattle Times

Actor Majd Mastoura makes pouting, uptight Hedi a completely unpredictable force in the film, while director Mohamed Ben Attia subtly weaves the seismic social changes brought on by the Arab Spring into this sly, poignant drama.

Rated: 3/4

Screen International

The performances from the leads, in particular Majd Mastoura as the browbeaten Hedi, are strong. Captured by spry hand-held camera, Mastoura negotiates a bold arc.

Deborah Young

The Hollywood Reporter

Quiet but pungent and featuring vibrant performances, it offers further evidence that the rebirth of Tunisian cinema is underway, and after its bow in Berlin competition it should find welcoming art film slots.

A classic theme - the dichotomy between tradition and freedom, between the security of the established and the risk of the unknown - appears here with a fresh and sensitive look. [Full review in Spanish]
