About Rumeur, etc.
Bachir, twenty-five, is looking to leave, perhaps to France. He waits every morning for the postman to come. The visa response is slow in coming. Bachir is bored, going around in circles. A rumor then fills this void: the possibility of changing the weekend. Saturday-Sunday is supposed to replace Thursday-Friday.
Directed by Mohammed Latrèche, Rumeur, etc. leans on a strong ensemble — Ahmed Benaissa — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2003.
