À VOIX BASSE
Lilia, an engineer living in Paris, returns to Sousse, Tunisia for her uncle’s funeral, accompanied by her partner, whom her family knows nothing about. Determined to unravel the mystery behind her uncle’s sudden death, she finds herself confronted with secrets within a close-knit family. Three generations of women coexist amid unspoken truths and traditions, reflecting an entire country shaped by complex societal and cultural mores.
This is a story of emancipation all done with finesse . The film embraces ambivalence, eloquent silences, and intense gazes to reveal these women’s journeys. All caught between heritage and desire and yes, with absolute sensuality.
