Cinemamed - La cour des grands

Mohammed and Fatima are forced to leave school at the age of twelve due to a lack of means. He dreams of finding a job in the city and lifting his family out of poverty. She wants to become a teacher, wear jeans, and aspires to a life that extends beyond domestic chores and marriage.

An unbearable observation of a rushed transition from childhood to adulthood, filmed with sensitivity.
