The Family (2024)
Algiers, 2019. As the Hirak is in full swing and the hope of profound political change sweeps across Algeria, Merouane, a former corrupt minister, and Khadidja, his exuberant wife, have only one thing in mind: to sell off their many ill-gotten assets and leave the country with their daughter Sarah before justice catches up with them. But amid the urgency and panic of this forced departure, each member of the family begins to assert themselves, and tensions multiply. Will the strong bonds holding the family together endure?
