synopsis
Sam Ali, a sensitive and impulsive Syrian, left his country to escape the war. To be able to travel to Europe and live with the love of his life, he accepts to have his back tattooed by a controversial contemporary artist. Turning his own body into a prestigious piece of art, Sam will come to realize that his decision might actually mean anything but freedom…
It weaves together satire and humane political awareness to create an original fable about art, privilege, freedom and identity.
NPR
A real original, made by adventurous artists in a small North African industry that’s never attracted much serious attention. But Ben Hania and her team have really come up with something fresh and dynamic here.
