Echoes of Machtat (2024)
In Mahdia, Tunisia, Maram embarks on an intimate journey through the ancestral customs that have shaped her life, exploring matrimonial traditions, and highlighting the Henna, where the bewitching songs of the Machtat resound. Tracing her childhood memories, guided by Latifa and Habiba, two prominent Machtat, she uncovers the maternal essence of tradition, where the bond between mother and bride is at the heart of these intimate celebrations.
