About Halima
Halima lives on Morocco’s coast and makes a living by gathering and selling mussels. An unknown phone call brings her long-buried past back to light. After her husband passed away, Halima stayed alone in their old house in the mountains. The land is undergoing drastic changes, leaving her home, livelihood and sense of belonging all precarious. Grief, hardship and displacement follow one after another. Though fate knocks her down time and again, she never surrenders.A former photojournalist, the director captures this one-woman battle with stark cinematography. Free from grand outcries, the film lays bare her everyday resilience. Amid constant flux and loss, this woman stands firm, striving to carve out her own place in the world.
Directed by Yassine el Idrissi, Halima leans on a strong ensemble — Khadija Amari, Rabii EL Fakih, Nacer Mdaghri — 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 2026.
