Mina and her husband, Halim run a small business in one of Morocco’s oldest medinas. Halim is a master of his trade, hand-embroidering caftans from silks so exquisite, they are like wearing air. Mina is a canny saleswoman, who loves Halim deeply but it is plain for all to see that her health is failing.

But Mina’s concern is for Halim. When they hire an assistant to help with the business to allow Mina to rest, she sets herself one final task. Mina subtly begins to weave the two of them into being more than just workmates in the time she has left, so there will be someone for Halim once she is gone.

The director explores a complex marriage with tenderness and grace in a superbly performed film that unfolds in unexpected and blissful ways.  – The Guardian
