Their giving and complex exchange raises creative penetration, and they open a journey through family bonds, his daughter, and the excitement of love.
Benani said: “What Urian shares is to search for something when it seems that there is a balance between a certain tenderness and spirit that they do not try to be cold or related – it is just a compass for this film, especially with our exploration of the daughter and the West in the context of North Africa, which are often settled through imported ideas that you should look at.”
And she continued: “An animation often misunderstood and thought about it as a type instead of a mediator full of capabilities. When we write and guidance, we do not think about the animation in a limited way. We are following the level of nuances and the emotional depth that we notice in reality around us. The means only adds the endless possibilities with its immediate symbolic strength.”
