Wrestling with writer’s block, Bouchra, a queer Moroccan jackal living in NYC, starts having difficult yet overdue phone calls with her mother in Casablanca. Trying to find balance in her life, Bouchra’s emotional reckoning with her mother and herself becomes her path to expression. BOUCHRA, the feature debut from acclaimed visual artists Meriem Bennani and Orian Barki, is a singular portrait, effortlessly towing the line between documentary, visual art, and resonant family drama.
