The Synopsis
Ahmed Bouanani’s Al-Manabe' al-Arba'a (1974), a very low-budget fantastical adaption of a poetic fable, features his wife Naïma Saoudi, who also worked as an art director and set designer. It is his only film in colour, which convinced him that his vocation was to work in black and white.
