About the title
35-year-old poet and performer of traditional songs Touda lives in the small Moroccan town of Sidi Bennour and raises her deaf-mute son Yassin alone. She's forced to perform in dirty, run-down bars to make ends meet. But the woman dreams of becoming famous, gaining recognition for her art, and giving her son a better future. To do this, she decides to move to Casablanca, where there are far more opportunities.
