"Blue Caftan" (12) Morocco

Halim and Mina run a caftan shop in the historic Salé medina, producing exquisitely finished hand-sewn garments. Married for some time, their union nevertheless contains a secret which must be kept quiet in a strictly conservative country like Morocco, and when new circumstances (including the arrival of a young apprentice) arise, so too do new emotional challenges that threaten to upset the careful calibration of their lives.

Crafted with elegant economy, The Blue Caftan is sensual, thoughtful and intensely moving. Brilliantly acted, it's an overwhelmingly tender character study and a thoughtful investigation into a country's relationship with tradition and modernity.
