About Hush Hush Baby
Abdullah 'Ap' Bentarek is happy that, unlike his Uncle Yusuf who stayed in the ancestral Moroccan mountain village, his father Ali moved to the Netherlands – even though it does mean that he’ll have to deal with lousy friends and unrealistic expectations at the employment office. A light-hearted portrait of the immigrant experience and the ubiquitous intolerance of the unfamiliar in Dutch society.
Directed by Albert Ter Heerdt, Hush Hush Baby leans on a strong ensemble — Mimoun Oaïssa, Salah Eddine Benmoussa, Zohra 'Flifla' Slimani — 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 comedy titles of 2004.
