  • Summary: A widowed Tunisian seamstress takes an unlikely journey of self-discovery in writer-director Raja Amari's sumptuous and sensual film. (Zeitgeist Films)
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 19 out of 21
  2. Negative: 0 out of 21
  1. Undoubtedly downplays the seamier, less attractive experiences of Arab women and men in Tunisian cabaret culture, and plays up the fairy-tale charm of the universal ''Flashdance'' formula in an unusual setting.
  2. 80
    Noteworthy for its rich characterizations and startling plot twists, including a delightful surprise ending that is both a sexual double entendre and a matriarchal triumph.
  3. 80
    A sweet and sexy celebration of real women's real bodies.
  4. 60
    Vividly photographed in shimmering colors and driven by a propulsive score.
