A revealing Noir

[rickgaucha · 7/10 · 31 July 2019]

A Moroccan noir by Noureddine Lakhmari it tells the story of a crooked cop nicknamed zro since that's how much he accomplished in life living in the slummy shadows of Casablanca ,he gets abused by everyone from his supperior Zeriouali a corrupt police captain to his father an ex cop living in the past who survives mentally by smoking kif . The film starts with him cleaning a wall a metaphor of him trying to clean the streets of child trafficking . The camera work also captures Zero's pessimistic view of the world and his hate for the villain Zerouali. The performances are mediocre but some arespectacular such as that of Dadas

can't find it with english subs

I absolutely love this movie and have been existed about sharing it with my English friends. However, my enthusiasm has been dampened by the disappointment of not being able to locate an English-translated version. It's disheartening how challenging it has been to find, considering the anticipation I had to share this cinematic gem. I can't help but think that the producers could have done a better job making this fantastic film accessible to a wider audience by providing an English version. It's a missed opportunity for them to reach a broader public and enhance the overall viewing experience for international audiences!

could've been better

The movie had a good story, the director showed how he was affected by the movie Taxi Driver, making a dark story movie, trying to say tha Morocco is a really horrible country to live in, however some details wern't precise such as the fetish on the raping scene, and the using of music wasn't good. But after all the director tried his best putting his movie among the best Moroccan movies made so far.
