Bouchra
Set between New York, Rabat, and Casablanca, in a world populated by anthropomorphic animals and suspended between realism, autobiography, and fiction, this artwork, the culmination of a long creative process, blends documentary and 3D animation languages. The film follows Bouchra, a thirty-five-year-old Moroccan jackal and filmmaker living in New York, as she writes an autobiographical film exploring how her queerness has impacted her mother, Aicha, a cardiologist jackal living in Casablanca. The story blends fiction—Bouchra’s film within the film—with an adaptation of recorded nonfiction conversations between Meriem Bennani and her mother.
