About

In Montreuil, France, a masked subject encounters their old colonial master in an auto repair shop. Through slowdance they try to find healing but old dynamics are at play. 

The filmmaker and subject considers their own relationship to French culture as one fractured and forced as colonial consequence by way of directly attacking the historic hypersexualization of Moroccan female bodies by the colonial masters. Moreover, they consider the levels of assimilation that North African and Middle Eastern immigrants are forced to submit to as a blind submission to whiteness.
