About Voices
Anissa Kaki is a 30-year-old Parisian theatre-maker, and Algerian Takia's granddaughter. In a piece based on her childhood memories, she evokes her grandmother's world. Whilst imitating how Takia prepared her mahjouba, she talks about the latter's smell and flavour – lent to it by grandmother's hands – which changed when they started to lose their strength.
Directed by Sonia Franco, Voices leans on a strong ensemble — Anissa Kaki, Takia Kaki — 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 documentary titles of 2019.
